Geography & terrain

Rajim lies in the Gariaband district of Chhattisgarh, 45 km from Raipur and 100 km from Jagdalpur — the triveni town of the region, its Rajiv Lochan temple, the sangam and the Kumbh grounds set on the Mahanadi's confluence.

History & culture

The town's story runs with the 12th-century temple era — the triveni town of the Mahanadi confluence and the 12th-century Rajiv Lochan temple of the Kalachuri era, with the town's modern role as the pilgrimage of the Chhattisgarh circuit and the home of the 12th-century temple and the sangam ghats and the 12-year Kumbh grounds; the town's history of the 2015 fair and the 1950s-era renovation and the holy dips, gives Rajim its triveni character.
