Meanwhile, political activity in Jharkhand heats up as BJP President Amit Shah is scheduled to hold rallies in the state on October 3rd. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also expected to address public gatherings on October 4th.
The political discourse took a turn with Prime Minister Modi launching a scathing attack on the Congress party’s election promises, calling them “hollow promises” and comparing them to “easy to make, hard to keep.”
This news comes amid the celebrations of Govardhan Puja, a significant festival dedicated to Lord Krishna and the worship of nature.
Observed on the Pratipada Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Kartik, Govardhan Puja marks the day when Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain to protect his people from Lord Indra’s wrath.
The festival is celebrated with elaborate rituals involving the creation of a Govardhan mountain replica from cow dung and the worship of Lord Krishna. Devotees also offer prayers for prosperity and protection.
This year, Govardhan Puja falls on November 2nd, with the Pratipada Tithi starting on November 1st at 6:16 PM and ending on November 2nd at 8:21 PM.
