Maha Shivratri Puja in Vadodara: Local Traditions

Vadodara, the old Gaekwad capital, is known for its Navratri garba and a cultured, educated middle class around the MS University. Gujarati and Maharashtrian traditions sit side by side here, so both Vastu Puja and Ganesh Chaturthi pujas are in demand.

Vadodara's refineries, industrial estates, railway works and university bring families from UP, Bihar and Rajasthan, and these households look for Hindi speaking Pandits for Satyanarayan Katha, Sundarkand Path and Chhath. Local Gujarati families follow Audichya and other Brahmin traditions, with Pushtimarg devotion common among Vaishnav households.
