In Sanatan Dharma, the festival of Ganga Dussehra is considered very sacred and a symbol of reverence. But this year i.e. the year 2026, Ganga Dussehra is going to be very unique, rare and highly fruitful spiritually. The main reason for this is that this year Adhikamas (Malamas) is falling in the month of Jyeshtha, which has started from 17th May.
Due to this astronomical and religious calculation, there will be two Jyeshtha months in the year 2026, due to which the holy incarnation day of Mother Ganga i.e. Ganga Dussehra will be celebrated this time in the period of Malmas. Since Adhikamas is considered to be the favorite month of Lord Shri Hari Vishnu, the importance of bathing in Ganga, chanting, penance, Tulsi worship and doing charity increases manifold during this period.
