The Shravan festival in Rajasthan's Wagad region, which includes Banswara and Dungarpur, has a unique tradition. Unlike the rest of the country, where Shravan is celebrated for a month, in Wagad, it is celebrated for 45 days. This extended celebration starts from Hariyali Amavasya, which marks the beginning of the Shravan month in this region. The festival is an important part of the cultural heritage of the people of Wagad. During this period, the region comes alive with the sound of 'Har-Har Mahadev', which is a common chant during the Shravan festival.
