Prayagraj: Shri Krishna, Baladau, Mother Saraswati, Rukmini Devi and Radha Rani were worshipped. The counter-kirtan between Sachdeva Naughty and Kumari Kamleshwari Kanchan enthralled the people. Kansa Dahan and other rituals were organised at Kidganj Parade Ground by the Ancient Dadhikando Fair Committee, Krishna Nagar Triveni Marg, Kidganj. A grand Jawabi Kirtan and cultural program was organized. Before this, the patron of the committee and Mayor Ganesh Kesarwani, following the tradition, performed pujan (worship) of Lord Shri Krishna, Balram, Mata Saraswati, Rukmini Devi and Radha Rani. After this, Lord Shri Krishna burnt the effigy of the unrighteous Kansa with his arrow. As soon as the effigy of the unrighteous Kansa was burnt, the devotees chanted Jai Shri Krishna and Balram Ji. Mayor Ganesh Kesarwani inaugurated the Jawabi Kirtan and cultural program, organized under the aegis of Sachdeva Shararati Kanpur and Kumari Kamleshwari Kanchan Chhatarpur Bundelkhand, by lighting a lamp. On this occasion, he said that the ancient Dadhikando fair is a gift from our ancestors, which is a celebration of the defeat of unrighteousness and the victory of love, devotion and religion, which gives the message that no matter how powerful the unrighteous are, their destruction is certain.
