As per Hinduism, Lord Krishna’s Uncle Kansa, after the death of his parents and in order to invade the throne, announced marriage of both his sisters. However, during the wedding of one of the sisters Devaki with Vasudeva, Saint Narada appeared and told Kansa that the 8th son of Devaki would kill him and free the city from his cruelty. On hearing this, demon king Kansa, imprisoned Devaki and Vasudeva inside the fort and killed all seven children right after the death. However, on the 8 child (Lord Krishna), Vasudeva smuggled the child to Gokul across the river Yamuna, which later came after 14 years and killed demon Kansa and freed the parents.
