In ancient times, there used to be a learned Brahmin in a state. His name was Dharamketu. He had two wives. One name was Sushila and the other name was Chanchala.

Time passed and one day a daughter was born to Sushila. Chanchala had a son there.
On this, Chanchala sarcastically said at Sushila that you observe so many fasts, but you got a daughter, while I did nothing, yet I got a son. Sushila was deeply hurt by Chanchala's words, but she did not leave the path of her devotion and devotion. He observed the fast of Vikat Sankashti Chaturthi with great devotion. Pleased with this, Lord Ganesha blessed him to have a son.
After some time, her wish was also fulfilled, but her husband died. After this, Chanchala started living separately, but Sushila continued living in the same house and raising her children. Sushila's son turned out to be talented and intelligent. Due to his hard work, happiness and prosperity started coming in the house. Seeing all this, Chanchala felt jealous. One day, getting a chance, he pushed Sushila's son into the well.
However, by the grace of Lord Ganesha, Sushila's son was saved. When Sushila realized that Bappa was protecting Sushila's family, she regretted her actions. He immediately apologized to Sushila. Sushila also forgave him. Also talked about observing fast on Vikat Sankashti Chaturthi. Chanchala followed Sushila's advice and observed a fast on Vikat Sankashti Chaturthi. Then Lord Ganesha started blessing him too.
