Kojagara Puja, also known as Kojagari Lakshmi Puja or Lokkhi Pujo, is a Hindu festival celebrated on the full moon night of Ashwin (September-October). Kojagari Lakshmi Puja 2024 falls on Wednesday, October 16. It is dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, the deity of wealth and prosperity, and marks the end of the monsoon season in India. The term "Kojagara" is derived from "Ko Jagarti," meaning "Who is awake?" as it is believed that the Goddess visits homes on this night, blessing those who remain awake with prosperity.

Special prayers and rituals are performed to seek her blessings for wealth and well-being.
