Why do men in Ahmedabad wear sarees during Navratri?

Men in Ahmedabad wear sarees and perform Garba during Navratri as part of a 200-year-old tradition at Sadu Mata Ni Pol. The ritual honours Sadu Mata and seeks forgiveness for their ancestors' failure to protect a woman named Saduben. The tradition is observed on the eighth day of the festival, with around 15 households participating every year.
