The festival that is not associated with Navratri depends on the typical options given in the question, but in most standard GK / school quizzes the “odd one out” is usually a festival that does not involve the worship of Goddess Durga over nine nights. Common examples of festivals not associated with Navratri are:

  • Diwali (connected mainly with Lakshmi Puja and Rama’s return to Ayodhya, not the nine nights of Durga).
  • Holi (festival of colours, linked to Prahlad and Krishna, not Navratri).
  • Pongal / Makar Sankranti (harvest and sun-transition festival).

If you share the exact options (A, B, C, D), I can pinpoint which one among them is not associated with Navratri.
