Default Kashmir - Vaitha-Vatur-Truvah

On the 13th day of the lunar fortnight of Bhadon , this festival is celebrated.

It which literally means: 'Vaitha for the River Jhelum-source-thirteenth day'.

It is held at an ancient temple at Verinag, the source of the Jhelum, in which Hindus coming from all parts of the valley , participate along with some local Muslims. A big Havana ceremony is performed on the occasion.

It is really nice to be a part of the ceremony which is performed... How many celebrate this festival?

They call Jhelum River as veth.. I do not know the exact rituals they follow and the significance behind it. Just know some informations about it..

Is it followed in here, I have never seen anyone celebrating this festival.

If somebody knows please guide me.
