In the Navratri festival, the eighth and ninth day is considered very auspicious. It is a rule of inviting girls in the form of nine Goddesses, in the last Navaratri on the day of Durgashtami or Navami. The devotee’s Navratri fast is completed only after worshipping the nine girls and giving them Dakshina.

It is believed that mother Durga is pleased by worshipping nine girls and blesses the devotee with happiness and prosperity. Some people keep Kanya Pujan on Navami day and some people on Ashtami day.
