Navratri

Navaratri is a Hindu festival in which the nine incarnations of goddess Durga are worshipped. Followers of Shaktism believe that Durga blesses her devotees during this festival. During this festival, people usually fast for nine days and each day people worship a different form of goddess Durga because this festival is all about honouring goddess Durga. The Gujrati people perform a very special dance called garba every night during this festival . Enormous garba nights are arranged not only in Gujarat but also in the other states of India.
