Mulugu: Mini Medaram Jatara to begin from Feb 12

According to Medaram priests, the rituals, including temple cleaning, worship and village confinement are scheduled for February 12.

Mulugu: The four days mini Sammakka-Saralamma fair, popularly known as Medaram Jatara, would be held from February 12. The schedule for the fair was announced by the Medaram Temple Trust Committee on Saturday.

According to Medaram priests, the rituals, including temple cleaning, worship and village confinement are scheduled for February 12. On February 13, deities Sammakka and Saralamma would be worshipped with turmeric and vermilion. The Manda Melige ritual would be held on February 14 and 15.


While the State government officially holds the biennial fair, the temple priests conduct the mini jatara (Manda Melige) at the request of devotees in the intervening year. To commemorate the valour of the tribal women Sammakka and Sarakka against the imperial Kakatiya kings, local tribes, who worship them as goddesses, gather at the tiny Medaram village in Tadvai mandal every year for the Sammakka-Sarakka Jatara.
