Women with henna-decorated hands pray during the Hindu festival of Karva Chauth in Ahmedabad yesterday. Married Hindu women observe a one-day fast and offer prayers for the well-being of their husbands during the festival. The fast begins before sunrise and ends after they worship the moon in the evening.
