WELCOME TO MY BLOG


I introduce myself as Meena Shorewala and this blog of mine is an attempt to share my experience and knowledge in Marwari rituals of all festivals and marriages.

In these modern times most of the new generation is unaware about the rituals that take place, and this lack of knowledge is forcing them to slowly avoid the rituals or compromise them with wrong ritual.

Through this blog I attempt to guide the new generation and make them aware about the rituals of Marwari community.
