This auspicious occasion is observed to welcome the Goddess, as she is believed to visit her devotees to shower her blessings upon them. And to greet her with utmost love and warmth people clean and light up their houses and prepare offerings to grace her presence. They say if the Goddess is happy during her visit then she would bless them with health and prosperity.
Across different states this puja is observed during different time span. In north India it is celebrated during Diwali, the festival of lights, while in Bengal, Assam and Odisha it is celebrated 5 days after Durga Puja's Vijaya Dashami on the very next full moon day.
