Hartalika Teej falls on Shukla Paksha Tritiya of Bhadrapada and is regarded as one of the most demanding Hindu fasts, observed without food or water for a full day and night. The name comes from 'harat' (abduction) and 'aalika' (friend), recalling the story of Parvati's friend helping her avoid a marriage arranged with someone other than Shiva.
