Devotees of Lokenath Brahmachari observe fasting every last half of the month of Kartik on both Saturdays and Tuesdays, praying for the well-being of their loved ones.
This festival is also known as Kartik Vrata, Rakher Upobash, and Gosair Upobash.
The photos, taken by Dhaka Tribune photographer Mehedi Hasan, show devotees breaking their fast after lighting a lamp at Barodi Loknath Ashram in Narayanganj on Tuesday.
