Shardiya Navratri is being celebrated with enthusiasm in Gandevi, Navsari, where people perform the traditional Dori Raas Garba, a rope-based dance.

A local resident, Bharat Lad, said that the Dori Raas Garba has been performed near the Hanuman temple in Gandevi for the past 100 years, with children also taking part, and expressed hope that the tradition will continue for many more centuries.
