An Idol procession in village

Above are the pics from an Idol procession where village people carry God Nandi idol in a pallakki (palanquin) going round the village. They also carry Nandi kol (long holy stick) on their head along with procession. A long holy stick to lift on their head, one needs to have enough strength to balance as well as carry on their head.

Each village person contributes their share for the function which would be celebrated as a mark of respect to God Nandi. The procession ends at temple premises with distributing of food/Prasad to everyone.
