Govardhan Puja falls on the same day as Gujarati New Year, or Bestu Varas. According to Gujaratis, Chopda Pujan must be performed after Gujarati New Year in order to shut out old accounts and open new ones.
Every year, the Gujarati people celebrate the Gujarati New Year with tremendous fervour and passion. Gujarati New Year is traditionally observed on Govardhan Puja during Diwali since it comes on Pratipada of Shukla Paksha in the Kartik month.
