Kawad Yatra is an ancient Hindu pilgrimage where devotees, known as Kanwariyas, carry holy Ganga water in a kawad to offer it to Lord Shiva. Its roots trace back to mythological stories of Lord Shiva consuming poison during Samudra Manthan. The yatra symbolizes devotion, sacrifice, and purification. Millions participate each year, walking long distances to temples like Haridwar and Deoghar, seeking blessings, spiritual growth, and fulfillment of wishes.
