About Karaka Chaturthi (Karva Chauth)

Karaka Chaturthi, commonly known as Karva Chauth, is a traditional Hindu festival primarily celebrated by married women in Northern India. Participants observe a rigorous fast from sunrise to moonrise, praying for the longevity, safety, and prosperity of their husbands. This cultural observance is characterized by decorative henna, traditional attire, and the performance of specific rituals centered around the moon.
