Vishwakarma Jayanti is celebrated on the birth day of Bhagwan Vishwakarma, often known as Vishwakarma Puja. Just like Makar Sankranti, the festival that falls on the 15th day of January, Vishwakarma Puja is celebrated every year on the day of Kanya Sankranti. Hence, this festival falls on 16-17 September.
Bhagwan Vishwakarma is considered the world's first engineer and architect. Vishwakarma helped Bhagwan Brahma in the creation of the universe. It is believed that Vishwakarma ji built the houses, cities, Astra-sastra etc. of the gods. Many cities, buildings and objects like Hastinapur, Dwarka, Indrapuri, Pushpak Viman and Indraprastha have been constructed. Therefore, Bhagwan Vishwakarma is worshiped in industries and factories on this day.
Based on some beliefs, Vishwakarma Puja is celebrated with Govardhan Puja on the very next day of Diwali.
