The Seraikela Chhau Mahotsav, which is being organized simultaneously with the Chaitra Parva, will kick off on April 9 and continue till April 14. This time, however, the focus would be identifying Chhau artistes, who have never got an opportunity to showcase their talents. The administration has decided to give chance to budding artists to display their skills. More than 70 professional Chhau teams are expected to perform at the festival; the Rajkiya Chhau Nritya Kala Kendra will try to spot first time performers. The Seraikela-Kharswan district administration has been organizing such festivals since the independence in 1947.
In Jharkhand an also in many part of the neighboring as well as distant states, the month of Shravan (July- August) is almost synonymous with Baidyanath Dham or Baba Dham as it is also known.
Come Shravan and scores of people from those states throng to Deoghar that literary means the abode of the God for offering puja at the ancient temple of the presiding deity Lord Shiva who is also known as Ravaneshwar.
There is no definite information about when the temple was constructed or by whom. But the importance of Deoghar mentioned in old spiritual texts like the Shivpurana suggests it must be around a thousand years since it was made.
