Happy Janmashtami 2024: Significance of Dahi Handi celebration during Janmashtami

The vibrant festival of Shri Krishna Janmashtami, observed mainly in Northern and Western India, commemorated Lord Krishna’s birth. Marked by joyful celebrations, the event includes fasting and bhajans until midnight. A highlight is the Dahi Handi, re-enacting Krishna’s childhood mischief of stealing curd, wherein teams build human pyramids to break pots filled with dahi and butter.
