text: # Budhwa Mangal
  
  Budhwa Mangal or Bada Mangal is a series of festivals celebrated in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India, on every Tuesday in the Hindu month of Jeyestha (May–June). According to the beliefs of Hinduism, Shri Hanuman met Shri Ram for the first time on Tuesday of the month of Jeyestha. Since then it is believed that all Tuesdays of this month are auspicious. On this special day, there are kirtans in the temples and bhandaras are organized for the devotees at various temples and places.
  
  The Budhwa Mangal is also the biggest example of communal history in the north India. According to historians the Nawab of Lucknow, Nawab Wajid Ali Shah, built the Lord Hanuman temple in Aliganj vicinity of Lucknow, after his wife was blessed with a baby boy. These days people celebrate it by organising community feast across city and people from neighbouring districts have also started celebrating it.
