Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Karwa Chauth 2026 was celebrated with devotion, love and traditional fervour across Madhya Pradesh on Thursday. Women observed a day-long fast for the well-being and longevity of their husbands, while couples gathered at popular locations to celebrate the occasion. However, cloudy skies and intermittent drizzle played spoilsport in several cities, including Bhopal and Indore, delaying the much-awaited moon sighting by hours.
The moonrise time was between 8 pm and 8.30 pm at different places. However, thick clouds prevented many women from catching a glimpse of it until late at night. At several places, the moon reportedly became visible only after 10.30 pm, leaving fasting women disappointed and exhausted.
Despite the prolonged wait, couples continued their celebrations, with some even turning to mobile applications to complete the traditional rituals.
