About Gobhardan Pujan (Tihar)

Gobhardan Pujan is observed during the Tihar festival in Nepal as a day to worship the cow, which is considered a sacred animal. Devotees honor the cow for its contribution to human life by decorating them with garlands and offering food. This cultural practice reflects the deep respect for nature and animals in Nepalese society.
