Karva Chauth<br />

ver 300 members and<br />

their guests celebrated<br />

Othe auspicious occasion <strong>of</strong><br />

Karwa Chauth with the Kohinoors <strong>of</strong><br />

our families at <strong>India</strong> <strong>Club</strong> on the 26th<br />

<strong>of</strong> October.<br />

Ladies dressed in finery holding<br />

decorated Puja Thalis with twinkling<br />

earthen lamps, performed the<br />

Puja, as they were listening to the Katha,<br />

a well known story about a lady called Karva<br />

and how she served her husband.<br />

Women fast from dawn to dusk to seek<br />

longevity and well-being <strong>of</strong> their husbands.<br />

They break the fast, after looking at the<br />

moon through a sieve.<br />

with Kohinoor<br />

The Katha reading was followed by<br />

surprise games, wherein the ladies got an<br />

opportunity to win hordes <strong>of</strong> prizes from<br />

Kohinoor and Al Marai. The Dholak player<br />

got the ladies on their toes for a round <strong>of</strong><br />

dance session.<br />

The event was well organised by Ms.<br />

Pansy Lobo. Hampers containing Kohinoor<br />

Rice and wheat flour were given to<br />

all ladies. Beautifully decorated<br />

Thalis with Sieve wrapped very<br />

attractively were given away by<br />

Mrs Neeru Ahuja.<br />
