Attukal Pongala Festival In Trivandrum
Hindu women are sleeping on the grounds of the Attukal Bhagavathy Temple to secure a place to cook pongala the next morning, on the night of the 9th day of the 10-day-long Attukal Pongala Mahotsavam Festival in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India, on February 19, 2019. The Attukal Pongala Mahotsavam Festival is celebrated by millions of Hindu women each year. During this festival, women are preparing Pongala, which is rice cooked with jaggery, ghee, coconut, and other ingredients, in the open in small pots to please the Goddess Attukal Devi, popularly known as Attukal Amma, who is believed to fulfill the wishes of her devotees and provide prosperity.
