     Puj Mata's Navrathri was celebrated in Sufidar from 11/10/2007 to 19/10/2007. There was a festive mood at Sufidar during all the nine days. Puj Dadaji lit the Akhand Jyoth on the midnight of 11/10/2007.

     Vipin Sewani and Qawwal Liaq Ahmed charmed the audience with their melodious bhajans of Puj Mata on all days. All Shevadaris, men and women did their sheva with devotion and the celebrations ended smoothly with Puj Dadaji seeking blessings of Puj Mata's Akhand Jyoth and Puj Mata's Holy Jal (water) being showered on all the devotees.
