However, women all over India have learnt to embrace this tradition and as days have changed, women also go to work, perform household chores without eating anything. In a recent incident, a 21-year-old man, allegedly committed suicide in Uttar Pradesh after he had a heated exchange of words with his wife because she refused to keep a fast on Karva Chauth.
