The event, hosted under India’s presidency of the G20, witnessed the historic formal induction of the African Union (AU) into the grouping and the adoption of a declaration by consensus by the world leaders participating in the event.
The 9-day-long festival of Shardiya Navratri is all about worshipping Maa Durga and her nine avatars, known as Navdurga. Navratri means ‘nine nights’ in Sanskrit. Hindus observe a total of four Navratris throughout the year.
