Shardiya Navratri 2024: In Hinduism, worshiping the 9 forms of Maa Durga during Navratri is considered to be especially fruitful. Every year there are 4 Navratris. Which includes two Gupt Navratri, Chaitra Navratri and Shardiya Navratri. According to Pandit Anirudh Jha of Bausi Kamdhenu, this year the Pratipada date of Shardiya Navratri will start on 2 October 2024 at 11:13 pm and will end the next day on 3 October at 1:19 am. Therefore, according to the Udayatithi, Shardiya Navratri will start from 03 October. At the same time, it will end on 12 October. This year both the arrival and departure of Maa Durga are considered to be troublesome. Goddess Bhagwati will come on a doli this year and will depart on an elephant.
