Observing ‘Shravan Somvar Vrat’, women and men fasted for the day by limiting their diet to fruits and one meal. The day is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Further, some would be fast on Tuesday known as ‘Mangala Gauri Vrat’.
The month of Sawan is the fifth month of the Hindu calendar beginning from Chaitra, and is the most auspicious month of the Chaturmas. On Purnima or full moon day, or during the course of the month the star ‘Shravan’ rules the sky, hence the month is called Shravan.
Temples in the city thronged with devotees for ‘rudra abhishek’ in the morning. ‘Om Namah Shivay’ echoed in the air throughout the day in temples. Most temples had prepared special ‘prasad’ that was distributed among devotees in the morning and evening.
On the first Monday of Savan, a fair was held on many Shiva temples of the city. The largest fair was seen at Baneshwar Mahadev in Banganga and Shiva temple in Devguradia. Apart from this, there will be a festive atmosphere in the evening on other temples.
