The day of Mahashivratri is very special for the devotees of Bholenath. According to beliefs, the festival of Mahashivratri is celebrated to commemorate the marriage of Mother Parvati and Lord Shiva. In such a situation, Mahakal is worshiped in temples with great pomp on this day. Every year Mahashivratri is celebrated on the Chaturdashi day of Krishna Paksha of Phalgun month.
Talking about this year, this year this date is falling on 8th March. In such a situation, people have also started preparations for it. On the special occasion of Mahashivratri, people worship with all their hearts and also observe fast. Especially unmarried girls keep fast on Shivratri to get their desired groom.
