During the four day-long Raja festival, it is believed that Bhudevi (Mother Earth) menstruates and prepares herself for future agricultural activities because of which all farming activities such as digging of soil and ploughing the field are suspended. Women, particularly unmarried girls, have a special place in this festival.
