Jalabhishek in pagodas with chants of Har-Har Shambhu
Jalabhishek of Lord Ashutosh was performed in the pagodas of Muzaffarnagar on Shivratri. There were queues of devotees in the temples. Har Har Shambhu was chanted.

Devotees started queuing up at Shiv Chowk in the city on Thursday night itself. After Trayodashi, Jalabhishek was performed on Friday morning in the auspicious time of Chaturdashi. Due to the excess of Dak Kanwaris, the police administration had to face difficulties in making arrangements. Devotees formed long queues on Bhagat Singh Road and Roorkee Road. Worship was done according to the rules and regulations. Devotees from far and wide reached the Sambhalheda Panchmukhi temple in Mirapur area to perform Jalabhishek.
