A 1. The correct answer is Goddess Durga. The first three days of the Navaratri festival are devoted to the worship of the Goddess Durga, also known as Amba, Bhavani, Jagdamba, and Mahakali; the next three days are dedicated to Laxmi, the Goddess of Wealth, and the final three days to Saraswati, the Goddess of knowledge, art, and learning.

A 2. The correct answer is as an omen for a good harvest. Navaratri in majority of the places is celebrated for a good harvest and to propitiate the nine planets. Women also plant nine different kinds of food grain seeds in small containers during these nine days and then offer the young saplings to the Goddess.
