In this video, we exploreMarbat Festival is a vibrant and deeply symbolic religious procession celebrated primarily in Nagpur, Maharashtra, by the local Muslim and Hindu communities. Held annually during the month of Muharram, the festival is known for its large effigies—called "Marbats"—which are carried through the streets accompanied by music, drumming, and chants.

Each Marbat effigy represents various evils or negative forces—such as social injustice, corruption, or communal discord—and the act of parading and eventually burning or immersing them symbolizes the community’s collective rejection of these forces. Alongside Marbats, participants also carry "Badgyas", symbolic figures that often have political or social commentary.

Though rooted in religious observance, especially in the memory of Imam Hussain’s martyrdom at Karbala, the festival has evolved into a broader expression of local culture, satire, and public voice. The Marbat Festival fosters unity across communities and generations, making it a unique example of how tradition, art, and activism can come together in a powerful public ritual.Join us as we break it down with clear explanations, expert insights, and actionable tips to keep you informed and ahead of the curve.
