Second day of Chaitra month is the birthday of Jhulelal, the patron saint of Hindu Sindhis now. He was born to Maa Devki in Narsapur after great prayers from Hindu Sindhis for 40 days to Varun Dev to protect them against conversion into Islam. He showed miracles to the Muslim ruler Mirkshah of Thatta and forced him not to press Hindus to convert to Islam.
Sindhis all over the world celebrate Cheti Chand and pray to Jhulelal as the patron saint.
