Nuakhai Festival usually occurs in the months of August and September. It's an agricultural festival and is also called Nuakhai Parab or Nuakahi Bhetghat. Nuakhai is a combination of two words. The word β€˜Nua’ means β€˜New’ and β€˜Khai’ means β€˜Eat’. As the name says, Nuakhai Juhar is celebrated to welcome the season for farming Rice. It is the main agricultural festival for the people of Orissa.
