Aksharabhyasam (Vidyarambh) in Haridwar: Local Traditions
Haridwar is where the Ganga leaves the hills, and it is one of the most important places in North India for rites for the departed. Families bring ashes for Asthi Visarjan at Har Ki Pauri, perform Shraddha and Pind Daan at Kushavart Ghat and Narayani Shila, and bring children for Mundan on the ghats. The evening Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri draws crowds every day.
The Haridwar Pandas are famous for their vanshavali bahis, family registers that record visits and deaths going back many generations and are organised by the family's home district. For household Pandits there is also steady local work in Jwalapur, BHEL Ranipur and the new colonies, and the Kanwar Yatra in Sawan and the Kumbh bring enormous crowds.
