Gangaji Ki Aarti II
Hindus believe that
bathing in the
sacred rivers will
result in the
remission of sin and
will circumvent
rebirth, thus
guaranteeing a berth
in the heavens.
Ganga Dussehra,
held over the first
10 days of the month
of Jyeshtha (in
June), celebrates
Gangavataran - the
descent of the Ganga
to earth.
Some of the most
important Hindu
festivals and
religious
congregations are
celebrated on the
banks of the river
Ganga such as the
Kumbh Mela and the
Chhat Puja.
 
The Ganga Aarti at
Har-ki-Pauri in
Haridwar is one of
the famous events
starts every evening
after sunset, with
large crowds
gathered around both
the banks of a
Ganges river.
