No festival or vrat falls today for your region.
That is a real answer, not a gap — most days of the year are ordinary days,
and a calendar that always has something to sell you is not a calendar.
Coming up
- Purnima tomorrow Sat, 17 Jan
- Angarki Sankashti Chaturthi in 4 days Tue, 20 Jan
- Krishna Shashti in 6 days Thu, 22 Jan
