Madikeri: Kodagu’s annual harvest festival, ‘Puthari,’ symbolising the first harvest of the paddy crop, will be celebrated on Dec. 14, coinciding with the auspicious Rohini Nakshatra.
The date of the festival was finalised last Friday at the Paadi Sri Igguthappa Temple in Kakkabe, following astrological guidance from astrologers in Ammangeri. Representatives from 13 families and temple office-bearers gathered to determine the festival’s date and timings.
