Switch To Beeps Mode Karwa Chauth 2025: Observed on the fourth lunar day of the dark fortnight of the Hindu month of Kartik, Karwa Chauth, also called Karak Chaturthi, holds a deep cultural significance for married women in India. On this day, married Hindu women observe a 'nirjala vrat', or fast, by not consuming food or drinking a single drop of water after sunrise for the entire day.
The fast is observed for the prosperity, safety and long life of the husbands. Women break their fast by looking at the moon and their husbands' faces through a sieve.
This year's Karwa Chauth date has led to some confusion, with many debating whether the festival falls on October 9 or 10. Here is the correct date, puja muhurat, fasting time, and moonrise details.
Karwa Chauth 2025: Date and Day
This year, Karwa Chauth will be celebrated on Friday, October 10. The confusion in dates has arisen due to Chaturthi, which spans two days this year. Since the vrat (fasting) is observed on the day when Chaturthi tithi is active, Karwa Chauth will be celebrated on October 10.
Meanwhile, the Krishna Paksha Chaturthi Tithi will begin on Thursday, October 9, at 10:54 PM and end at 7:38 PM on Friday, October 10.

Significance of Karwa Chauth
This day is celebrated with the belief that it emulates Goddess Parvati, who observed a fast to obtain Lord Shiva as her husband.

The one-day festival is widely celebrated in the northern parts of India, including Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, and Rajasthan. Married Hindu women pray to Lord Shiva, Goddess Parvati, Lord Ganesha, and Karwa Mata for the long life of their husbands.
