Bhadrakali Jayanti is a significant Hindu festival celebrated in honor of Goddess Bhadrakali, who is worshipped for her fierce and protective nature. Devotees observe this day with fasting, prayers, and rituals to seek the blessings of the goddess for protection, prosperity, and well-being.

The festival usually falls on the eighth day of the waning moon in the Hindu month of Chaitra. It is believed that Goddess Bhadrakali was created from the wrath of Goddess Parvati to defeat the demon Daruka, making her a symbol of courage and strength.

On Bhadrakali Jayanti, devotees visit temples dedicated to the goddess, offer special prayers and perform rituals to seek her blessings. The day is also marked by the recitation of hymns, singing of devotional songs, and cultural programs to honor the goddess and celebrate her victory over evil.
