The doors of Kamakhya temple atop Nilachal hill were opened to devotees on Thursday (June 26, 2025) after four days of 'Ambubachi Mela', officials said.
The mela is held for four days every year when the temple doors are closed, coinciding with the ritualistic menstrual cycle of Goddess Kamakhya.
The temple doors were closed from Sunday (June 22, 2025).
"Worshipping in the temple was stopped from 'prabritti' and the doors were opened to devotees again this morning after the 'nibritti," an official said.
The annual Ambubachi Mela at the famed Kamakhya temple commenced on June 22 amidst elaborate security and other arrangements, attracting several lakh visitors, an official of Kamrup Metropolitan district said.
