Karwa Chauth 2024: The Karwa Chauth fast in 2024 will be observed on Sunday, October 20. On this day, married women observe a day-long fast for the longevity and well-being of their husbands. This is a strict 'nirjala' fast, meaning it is observed without food or water, starting before sunrise and ending at night after sighting the moon.
Karwa Chauth coincides with Sankashti Chaturthi, a day dedicated to fasting for Lord Ganesha. Married women observe the Karwa Chauth fast for their husbands’ long lives, and they worship Lord Shiva, Goddess Parvati, Lord Kartikeya, and Lord Ganesha. The fast is concluded after sighting the moon and offering 'arghya' (water) to it.
In 2024, Karwa Chauth will start during the Bhadra Kaal. Take a look at the date and details of Karwa Chauth 2024, along with the timing of Bhadra Kaal.
