The festival of ‘Janmashtami’ is performed regularly after the birth of Lord Shri Krishna. He was born in the cell of ‘Kansa’ in Mathura (Uttar Pradesh) in the womb of Devaki and Basudev. Shri Krishna is the Avatar of Vishnu who arrived in the Universe thrice in different yugas.
Shri Krishna was born to destroy evil motivated persons like his maternal uncle ‘Kansa’ and played a vital role in spreading the religion throughout the world. Radha was born in Barsana and got married to ‘Ayan’ who did not have physical relation with Radha. Lord Krishna saved the life of Radha while Kansa’s man tried to hack her.
