Event Details

Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akti or Akha Teej, is a highly auspicious Hindu festival celebrated on the third day (Tritiya) of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Vaishakha (April-May). The word Akshaya means "eternal" or "never diminishing," symbolizing prosperity, success, and good fortune. It is believed that any good deeds, charitable acts, or investments made on this day bring everlasting benefits. Many people buy gold and silver, as it is considered a sign of growing wealth. The day also holds great religious significance, marking events like the birth of Lord Parashurama, the beginning of the Mahabharata’s writing by Ved Vyasa, and the day when the sacred river Ganga descended to earth. Devotees observe fasts, perform pujas, and seek blessings for prosperity and happiness.
