‘Gou-pujan’ on ‘Bali Pratipada’ is an important festival in rural areas. The custom of dolling up Cows and calves with ornaments, worshipping them, and feeding them is still observed in villages. It is said that Shrikrushna had lifted ‘Govardhan Parvat (Mountain)’ on the first day of the Kartik month and protected ‘Gopal (cowherds)’; therefore, ‘Govardhan’ and ‘Goumata’ are worshipped on this day.
