Govardhan Puja in the Year 2026 will be Celebrated on Saturday, 10th November 2026
Govardhan Puja is a festival to worship Lord Krishna and Govardhan Parvat, or Mount Govardhan. It is widely celebrated in the northern part of India. This is the fourth day of Diwali and is celebrated in commemoration of lifting the mountain Govardhan by Lord Krishna on his fingertip.
The day is to worship Govardhan Mountain, which is said to have saved its inhabitants from incessant rains. It symbolizes the importance of nature in our lives.
The festival is also known as "Bali Padyami." On this day King Bali, who was killed by Lord Rama, would come out of Patala Loke and rule Bhuloke as per the boon given by Lord Vishnu.
