Education festival celebrated at Ainavilli temple with special prayers and pen distribution

RAJAHMUNDRY: An education festival was organised at the feet of Lord Vigneswara in the famous Ainavilli temple in Konaseema district. The main priest of the temple, Ainavilli Suryanarayana, offered a special prayer by placing one lakh pens at the feet of Lord Vigneswara.
It may be recalled that the puja is conducted for three days every year, marking the education festival. Special prayers were offered to Saraswathi Devi, the goddess of education, in the presence of parents of the children, marking Magha Masam Sukla Panchami (Sri Panchami).
The temple management made special arrangements for the large number of devotees who arrived at the temple. Later, the pens placed at the feet of Lord Vigneswara were distributed to the children.
