Karva Chauth is being celebrated in various parts of the country today. On this day, married women fast from dawn to moonrise, abstaining from food and water, and break their fast only after seeing the moon at night.
This ritual is believed to enhance the bond between husband and wife and promote the husband’s longevity. In Delhi, the festival is being celebrated with full enthusiasm.
On this festival, Hindu women come together to listen to the katha of Veeravati, who lost her husband and gained him back. Karwa Chauth is celebrated every year to seek marital harmony and longevity. It’s an important festival for married couples, symbolising devotion and love for each other.
