Jalandhar DC has announced that all government offices, corporations, boards, educational institutions, and other Punjab Government establishments situated in district will remain closed on September 6.
Jalandhar Holiday on September 6 has been announced to mark the occasion of Shri Siddh Baba Sodal Maharaj Ji Mela.
Sodal fair is held on the Chaturdashi date of Shukla Paksha of Bhadrapada month. On this day, people worship Shri Siddh Baba Sodal Maharaj Ji with great joy for his blessings.
Playing musical instruments makes this day like a festival, so that the atmosphere is joyful and sacred. The tradition of playing musical instruments in the fair of Baba Sodal Ji is very ancient. Its reason is not only religious but is also related to faith and folk tradition. Playing musical instruments on Baba Sodal is not just music but a symbol of faith, joy and devotion. It is considered a special way to please Baba Sodal Ji.
