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 Fri, 22 Jan
- Republic Day in 5 days Tue, 26 Jan
- Krishna Shashti in 6 days Wed, 27 Jan
