Lucknow, Amrit thoughts: Sharadiya Navratri starts from 22 and it will conclude on Tuesday, 1 October on Mahanavami. Navratri begins from Pratipada date of Shukla Paksha of Ashwin month. This time Navratri will be celebrated for 10 days as Tritiya Tithi will be 24 and 25, due to which the worship of Maa Chandraghanta will be done for two days.
