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
- Sankashti Chaturthi tomorrow Sat, 21 Dec
- Krishna Shashti in 3 days Mon, 23 Dec
- Kalashtami in 6 days Thu, 26 Dec
