It is celebrated at ghats along the banks of 12 sacred rivers in the country. Each river is associated with a zodiac sign and so every year the festival is celebrated on the banks of one of the rivers.The last Godavari Pushkaram was held in 2003.The festival which started on July 14 is a 12 day affair and over 7 crore people are expected to take a holy dip as part of the pushkar bath in the river. Around 200 city buses from Visakhapatnam depots have been diverted to Rajahmundry along with many special trains to keep up with the influx of pilgrims. Watch the video here.
