According to Hindu religious beliefs, the month of Shravan is considered dedicated to Shiva and Mata Parvati. The Monday fast of Sawan is the worship of Shiva on a weekly day, and the Mangala Gauri Vrat on Tuesday, like the Monday of Sawan, Tuesday is dedicated to Mata Gauri the form of Devi Parvati.
Mangala Gauri Vrat is mainly observed by married women and among them also newly married women to get the blessings of Mata Gauri for a happy married life.
The northern states of India like Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Delhi, Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh, Bihar and Jharkhand have different vrat tithi dates due to the observance of Purnimant Panchang. The fasting dates of the western, southern parts of India such as Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu differ from those of the northern states due to the late moon (Amant Chandra).
