This festival does not promote gender inequality. I remember once I was pregnant and was hesitant to do this but then my mother-in-law told me that if I won't do he will do.(My Husband). So in some parts of Rajasthan it's the tradition that either one of the couple keeps fast for happy married life. Renu Jajoo
I AM MARRIED SINCE 13 YEARS AND I CELEBRATE THE FESTIVAL WITH UTMOST FAITH. IN THE PREVIOUS YEARS OF MY MARRIAGE, MY HUSBAND WAS NOT IN DELHI BUT SINCE LAST TWO YEARS HE IS HERE IN DELHI AND IS KEEPING FAST WITH ME. ITS A GOOD FEELING THAT BOTH OF US ARE PRAYING FOR LONG LIFE FOR EACH OTHER.
Every Festival has its own charm, importance and purpose. One can see the glamourous women with very high sensitivity of love and affection towards their husband.Anyone can feel thrilled. Those who are talking about gender in-equality etc., will not understand its joy of feeling of sacrifice in love, they should neither celebrate it, nor criticise it.
as a husband i too fast on Karva Chauth , this shows my affection towards her, this does not mean the husband who do not fast does not love. its all about celebrating & enjoying life
