In Sanskrit, 'Angaraki' means 'a red burnt coal'. Ancient Vedic texts like Ganesh Purana and Smriti Kaustubha mention the importance of Angaraki Chaturthi. This day is considered a day of liberation, and worshipping Lord Ganesha on this day fulfills the sincere desires of devotees. Observing Ganesha's fast grants freedom from all problems and leads to a content life.

Angaraki Chaturthi occurs once every six months. On this special day, Lord Ganesha, the supreme deity of wisdom, is worshipped to receive eternal blessings of prosperity and happiness.
