Beni Daan Pooja: And then we have another news from Allahabad that is going to make the Eves feel a bit better. The Beni Daan Pooja or Veni Daan, is conducted in Allahabad city at Sangam. The significance of this Pooja that is performed by the elder couples, is that the hubby plaits the hair of the wife and then cuts the edges evenly. The hair thus obtained along with pooja items are fervently offered in the holy river. The myth is that by doing so the couple are said to be united for the rest of the seven lives.
