In ancient times, a king named Nal lived happily with his beautiful queen Damayanti. But due to a curse, the kingdom of King Nal was snatched away, the palace was looted and he also separated from his wife. The sad queen met Maharishi Sharabhang while wandering in Damayanti forest. Maharishi advised him to observe the fast of Sankashti Chaturthi of Bhadrapada Krishna Paksha and said that by duly worshiping Lord Ganesha, there will be a reunion of husband and wife. Damayanti fasted with full devotion, as a result of which she not only got her husband tap back, but also received the son Ratna. Since then, this fast was considered to be the best way to remove all the sufferings and get special grace of Vighnaharta Ganesha.
