Govardhan Puja 2026: What are Annakut traditions

Govardhan Puja, on Tuesday, November 10, marks post-Diwali tradition centered on community and devotion. Devotees honour Lord Krishna through Annakut offerings, constructing symbolic cow-dung models of Govardhan Hill and decorating them with flowers. Menus vary across regions, ranging from home-cooked dishes to elaborate temple feasts. The festival transforms ceremonial food into shared meal.
