Prakash Parv Diwali festival was celebrated with great pomp on 31st October across the country, but in some states Diwali will be celebrated today on 1st November. This time there was confusion across the country regarding the date of Diwali. Because there is a tradition of celebrating Diwali on the Amavasya date of Kartik month. Some people have celebrated Diwali on 31st October and now in some states Diwali will be celebrated on 1st November. According to the calendar, Diwali has started on 31st October at 3.22 pm on the Amavasya date of Krishna Paksha of Kartik month and will end on 1st November. It will end at 6:16 pm. In such a situation, the auspicious time for Lakshmi Puja on November 1 will start from 5:36 pm to 6:16 pm. During this period, devotees will get a total of 41 minutes time for worship.
Diwali will be celebrated on November 1 in these states
Diwali will be celebrated today on 1st November in Delhi, Mumbai, Rajasthan and Uttarakhand and in some parts of Delhi and Mumbai, Diwali has already been celebrated on 31st October. The states where Diwali has been celebrated on 31st October are now waiting for Govardhan Puja. Diwali will be celebrated in big temples of the country on November 1, due to which people are confused. Some people believe that the holiday is on October 31, so the festival will also be celebrated on the same day.
Uttarakhand and Mumbai
According to astrologers, Diwali is falling on Friday, November 1 in the state of Uttarakhand. However, the formal holiday of government employees will be on 31st October in the city only and Diwali will be celebrated on 1st November and in Mumbai too, two different opinions have been formed regarding Diwali. Therefore, in some areas of Mumbai, Diwali has been celebrated on 31st October and in some areas it will be celebrated today on 1st November. According to religious scriptures, if the prevalence of Amavasya is less or more during Pradosh period on two days, Lakshmi Puja will be done on the second day of Amavasya. Doing this is considered according to the scriptures. When there is Amavasya and Pratipada along with Amavasya, it is considered appropriate to worship Lakshmi on this day. That is why Lakshmi Puja will be performed in these states on 1st November only. Because the people here will worship Diwali according to the Udayatithi.
