Puja on the day of Ganesh Jayanti

Ganesha Jayanti is seen as the birth commemoration of Ruler Ganesha. According to the Hindu schedule, it is seen on Shukla Chaturthi during the Magha lunar month and right now agrees with January and February months in the Gregorian schedule.

Ganesha Jayanti during Magha month is mostly seen in Maharashtra and seaside districts of Konkan. In most pieces of India, the birth commemoration of Master Ganesha is seen during Bhadrapada month and is known as Ganesha Chaturthi. Like Ganesha Chaturthi, Madhyahna Vyapini Purvaviddha Chaturthi (मध्याह्न व्यापिनी पूर्वविद्धा चतुर्थी) is considered as Ganesha Jayanti.

It ought to be noticed that Ganesha Chaturthi is one the most popular celebrations in Maharashtra, but it isn’t seen as the birth commemoration of Master Ganesha consistently. It is Ganesha Jayanti during Magha month, which is considered the birth commemoration of Ruler Ganesha.

Ganesha Jayanti in Maharashtra is otherwise called Magha Shukla Chaturthi, Tilkund Chaturthi, and Varad Chaturthi.
