Hassan District Prepares for Annual Hasanamba Festival Amid Drought Conditions
The Hassan district administration is preparing for the annual Hasanamba festival, scheduled from October 29 to November 11, when the temple opens to devotees once a year. The temple will open at noon on October 29 for rituals only, with public darshan starting October 30 for 12 days. Due to drought conditions in the district, the festival will be conducted simply, focusing on religious traditions. Authorities are arranging facilities, security, and traffic management to accommodate the expected large number of visitors.
