Nagni Mata Temple Nurpur Mela Nagni 2
Mela Nagni (Nurpur Nagni Mata Temple Fair) is one of the grand celebrations in Himachal Pradesh. In 2023, Mela Nagni Mata begins on July 16.
The Nagni Mata fair in Nurpur, which are organised on every Saturday during Shravan Month and Bhadrapad Month of the Hindu calendar every year, were not celebrated last year as temples were closed due to the pandemic.
Thousands of devotees from Himachal Pradesh, Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir throng the deity situated near Bhadwar and Kandwal in Nurpur to pay their obeisance.
The Nagni Maata temple is located about 6 km from Nurpur town on Pathankot – Kullu highway. It is unique because water comes from below the temple where the idol of Naagni Maata is situated. People who get snake bite, come to Naagni Maata and simply drinking water and applying the Mitti, get cured completely.
