Anant Chaturdashi 2024. According to the hindu calendar, the festival falls on the 14th day of the bhadrapada month during shukla paksha. A number of grand festivals are celebrated across the nation during the year.

On this day, we perform prayers and rituals to thank lord ganesha for his blessings and ask for his safe journey back to his heavenly abode. This day also marks the important ritual of ganesha visarjan, during which devotees immerse the idols of lord ganesha in water, bidding him farewell.
