KATHMANDU: Vishwakarma Puja is being observed across the country with fervor and deity.

As the Vishwakarma festival celebrates the god of architecture, the celebration is observed mainly in factories, shops, and industries.

Vishwakarma Day is a holiday for workers of various factories and industrial areas who refrain from using any tools on this day. The workers pray for a better future, safe working conditions and success in their respective fields on Vishwakarma Puja.

Vishwakarma is considered as Swayambhu and creator of the world. He is the lord of the creative power that holds the universe together. Vishwakarma is considered the original creator, architect, divine engineer of the universe.
