            Culture of Rajasthan




In Rajasthan, hardly any month would have been such that there would be no religious celebration. The most notable and special festival is Ganagaur, in which the idols of Mahadev and Parvati are worshiped by women of all castes for 15 days, and they are then immersed in water. In the celebration of the immersion, the priests and officials are also included, and with the play music, the dressing room comes out. Both Hindus and Muslims join each other's festivals. On these occasions, enthusiasm and glee are dominated.

Another major festival is in Pushkar near Ajmer, which is a mixed form of religious festival and animal fair. Here, farmers from all over the state come with their camels and cows and buffaloes and pilgrims come in search of liberation. The Durga of Sufi Spiritualist Khwaja Muinuddin Chisti of Ajmer is one of the holiest dargahs of India's Muslims. On the occasion of Urs, about three lakh devotees come to the dargah from country and abroad every year.
