October 20, 2024: Karwa Chauth is a highly significant fasting ritual for married Hindu women, where they pray for the long life and well-being of their husbands. According to Drik Panchang, this year’s celebration takes place on October 20, during the Krishna Paksha in the month of Kartik. On this sacred day, women observe a strict fast, refraining from food and even water from sunrise until the moonrise, as a testament to their devotion and love.
