King Kansa of Mathura city, who was a very tyrannical king, the people of Mathura were fed up with his atrocities. At one time Akashvani realized that the eighth son of his sister Devaki would kill him. On hearing this, Kansa imprisoned his sister Devaki and her husband Vasudeva in a dungeon. Fearing his own death, Kansa killed the seven children of his sister Devaki. As soon as Krishna was born as the eighth child from the womb of the goddess, the doors of the cell opened automatically and the shackles of his feet were also broken. According to the order of Lord Vishnu, Vasudeva crossed the Yamuna and kept Sri Krishna in a basket and went to Gokul and there left Sri Krishna at the house of Mother Yashoda. On this occasion, the school students presented songs and dances related to the life of Shri Krishna.
