Garba at Sadu Mata ni pol where gents wear Sarees(photos)

Ahmedabad, 3 October 2014

In a tradition that goes back nearly two centuries, men of the Barot community in Sadhu Mata ni Pol wear chaniya-cholis while offering prayers at the Sadu Mata Temple on the eighth day of Navratri. This is done to express gratitude to the deity if their prayers for a child are answered.
