Women devotees have gathered with ‘Pandara Aduppu’ at the Attukal Bhagavathy Temple, Thiruvananthapuram.
The Attukal Pongala is one of the largest gatherings of women in the world.
It falls on the ninth day of the annual ten-day festival at the Attukal Bhagavathy Temple.
Attukal Temple is called the "Women's Sabarimala" as only women perform rituals.
In 2009, the ritual had made it to the Guinness Book of World Records for being the largest religious gathering of women on a single day when over 2.5 million people took part in it.
