Navratri Events Hit by Rain this Year

Showers lashed parts of South Gujarat, disrupting Navratri Garba celebrations.

Cities like Surat and nearby regions witnessed moderate to heavy rainfall, forcing organisers to halt outdoor festivities.

The sudden downpour left venues waterlogged, disappointing devotees and dancers eager to take part in the nine-day festival.

According to weather officials, the rain is linked to moisture from the Arabian Sea, triggering localised showers.

Though the intensity may reduce, scattered rain could continue in some areas over the next day. Authorities have urged organisers to take precautions while revellers are advised to check local forecasts before heading out.

The festive spirit remains high, but the weather may play spoilsport for outdoor Garba nights in Gujarat.
