Teej is observed by women across the country, mainly in North Indian states like Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar and Jharkhand. As per Hindu mythology,  the divine couple Shiva and Parvati is an ultimate inspiration for a successful marriage and family life. To seek their blessings, women observe fast and pray to the almighty for marital bliss. Apart from prayers and fasts, Teej is also the time of the year when women get together and enjoy the colourful festival. We wish all the ladies celebrating Hartalika Teej, a very Happy Teej 2019.
