It was
Karwa Chauth, Kartik Krishna Chaturthi. Indian women celebrated
Karwa Chauth. The festival of Karwa Chauth is celebrated to wish long life for the
husbands.
Indian wives observe a day long fast and break the fast seeing the moon in the evening. It is one of the most important
festival of the
Hindu wives. Large numbers of married
Hindu women observed this today.
Sushma Swaraj,
leader of Opposition in the
Loksabha (Lower house of the Indian parliament) also observed fast. She herself told the story related to
Karwa Chauth among the women came to visit her on the eve of the
festival.
