Garia Puja is celebrated in Tripura because the God Garia is supposed to provide livestock, peace, children, and wealth. She is much like Mother Shasthi, who gives children to mothers and is worshiped by married women. Therefore, Garia Puja is celebrated with vigor and enthusiasm in Tripura. It is a carnival of the ethnic tribal and is usually celebrated with a dance concert at the end. The majority of the tribes in Tripura follow the Shakti cult but the rest worship Lord Vishnu with heart and soul till today.

Since they were the tribal and their religion has been traditionally modified by the Hindu Religion, their form of worship is mainly animistic. They consider that god subsists in the components of nature. Therefore, all places are holy since either good or evil spirit resides in every place. You can enjoy the glory of this festival by participating in it on your vacation to Tripura.

Description of the Garia Puja:

A bamboo pole that symbolizes the Lord Garia, the deity of livestock and wealth, is worshipped with flowers and garland. The main ingredients with which the Garia Puja is conducted are cotton thread, rice, riccha, fowl chick, rice beer, wine, earthen pots, eggs, and wine.

According to the age-old tradition, the fowl is sacrificed before the deity, and the blood of the fowl is strewn before the Lord to get his blessing. The performance of the Garia Carnival is in agreement with the Ochai instructions.

During the festival, no one is allowed to cross the shadow of the symbolic god Garia for fear of making him annoyed while doing so. During the Garia Festival, the children play drums, sing and dance before the Lord Garia to appease him.
