 Karva chauth is celebrated as a mark of traditional and ritual for all married women who fast all over day by keeping long fast for good fortune and long life of their husband. The story of karvachauth which is prevalent from historic time...


Karva Chauth signifies the love of husband and wife towards each other. In today’s time even men are no more less in showing their love, they also keep a fast all over the day so that two sided bond remains forever. In night both husband and wife fulfil the fast after seeing the moon, and then following the traditional rituals.

When it comes:-the answer is very well known to all the married couples mainly in north India. As per Hindu calendar, Karwa Chauth is a one day festival, which is celebrated mainly in North India. It falls on the fourth day of the Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight) of the month Karthik or before nine days of Diwali. The Karva Chauth fast starts after sunrise and extend till the moonrise. Full Moon is seen on Karva Chauth, or on the fourth night of the Krishna Paksha, of the month Karthik.
Literal meaning: - Karva and Chauth are Hindi words that refer to “pot” and “fourth” (as it falls on the fourth day of the dark fortnight of month Karthik), respectively. Different mud pots are taken by the ladies, each refers to the name of their husbands. Each woman honours her pot and uses it to deliver water to the Moon, after moonrise. 


Now-a-days, karva chauth is considered as a romantic festival, in which women have fast for their husbands, and husbands give those different gifts in return. It is also a major time of family get-together as during the moonrise, all family members come together and perform the rituals, followed by dinner.

The in-laws love:-:- the in-laws love is shown in form of Sargi. Sargi includes the food items presented by the in-laws to their daughter-in-law. It is consumed by the ladies who observe fast before sunrise. Women awake before sunrise to have some food as Sargi.
