The Bishwakarma puja is being celebrated on Wednesday.

Bishwakarma is regarded as the main craftsman and architect of the Gods. As per Hindu mythologies, Bishwakarma is the designer of all the flying chariots of the gods and goddesses.

The festival is celebrated on the first day of Ashwin each year as per the Nepali Calendar.

The worship is generally conducted within the factory premises, workshops and the public places as well. All the machineries are worshipped along with the worship of Bishwakarma.

People worship their vehicles. Red and white clothes are offered to machinery, and vehicles are decorated.

Devotees have gathered in large numbers to worship both new and old vehicles at the Bhadrakali temple in the Capital.
