Durga Ashtami and Ram Navami, the eighth and ninth days of Navratri, are celebrated by honoring young girls or kanyas. Kanjak, also known as Kanya Pujan, is performed to worship these girls as manifestations of Goddess Durga. The girls are offered tender coconut, Halwa-Puri, and Chane as prasad. Kanjak is performed twice a year, on the last day of Navratri.
