Karwa Chauth, a festival symbolising the eternal bond of love between husband and wife, is observed on the Chaturthi Tithi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Kartik. On this day, married women keep a strict fast from sunrise to moonrise, without food or water, praying for the well-being and longevity of their husbands.

The tradition of Karwa Chauth dates back to Satya Yuga and continued through Treta Yuga, where queens of the Ikshvaku and Raghu dynasty observed it. In Dwapar Yuga, Draupadi, wife of the Pandavas, is also said to have kept this fast.

The Ritual Of Sargi

The pre-dawn meal, sargi, holds special significance. It is traditionally sent by the mother-in-law and includes fruits, sweets, a saree, mehendi, cosmetics, and sometimes jewellery, symbols of prosperity and marital bliss.
