Story of Govardhan Puja
According to mythological belief, Lord Krishna asked the people of Braj to worship Govardhan Parvat at the place of worship of Lord Indra, because the cows of all the Brajwasis used to graze on this mountain. They used to get food from this mountain. When the people of Braj started worshipping Govardhan, Lord Indra got angry and it started raining continuously for several days in the whole of Braj. Then Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain on one of his fingers, under which all the people of Braj took shelter.
It rained continuously for seven days. Brahma Ji went and explained to Lord Indra, which pacified his anger. Indra apologized. After this Lord Krishna put the mountain down and asked the people of Braj to mix all kinds of food and offer it to Govardhan, which was called Annakoot. This day was the Pratipada date of Shukla Paksha of Kartik month.
