The post, captioned in Hindi, translates as: “Today is the day to worship of Mother Brahmacharini. May her blessings be upon all. Here is praising the goddess on the second day of Navratri.”

(Aj Ma Brahnacharini ki upasana ka din hai. Unki kripa se desh ke mere samast parivarjano ke tap ki siddhi ho, yahi kaamna hai. Navratri ke doosre din prastut hai unki yah stuti..)
