Jumbo Savari postponed to October 23.

Sri Abhinava vagesha Brahmatntra Swatantra Parakala Mutt Seer & the chief priest of Sri Chamundeswari Temple Sri Shashishekar  have upheld the Sampradaya of Mysore Royal Palace to hold the said procession on 23rd/10 instead of 22/10. Maharani Promoda devi objected to the day fixed by the GOK to hold Jamboo Savari on october,22 ,because it clashed with the Ayudha pooja ceremony of the Palace. The Vijaya dashami ceremonywould begin in the morning & Conclude only in the evening at 07:00 PM on 22/10. Earlier in 1976 &2005 ,when both Ayudha Pooja & Vijaya Dashami fell on the same day, the procession(Jamboo Savari) the star attraction of the Navaratri pooja was post poned to the Next day. The Vijaya Yatra is the celebration of Victory of rifgtousness over Evil. This celebration has a history of more than 405 years & the royal family of Mysore(Considered to be the successor to Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagar)has been observing the ritual. Though the royal  custos & tradation has ceased to exist in India after 1947,yet the state of Karnataka(Old Mysore State) continue this festival to attract the tourists.
