An auspicious Hindu festival called Navratri is observed to honour Goddess Durga in her nine glorious forms. North Indians typically stockpile their kitchens with excess dairy, vet-approved meals, and sweets during this nine-day holiday. During Navratri, a different form of the goddess Durga is honoured each day.
