India celebrates the grandeur of the natural environment through festivals. Among them is Basant Panchami. In the southern states, people celebrate this holiday as Sri Panchami. However, in northern India, the occasion is Basant Panchami. Like every year, Basant Panchami 2023 is in January, and watching everybody dressed in yellow and exchanging sweets is a must-watch around the nation.
With the advent of the spring season, Basant Panchami occurs basically on the fifth day of the Magh month, according to the Hindu calendar. Moreover, many people even use this date to make the countdown for Holi, as it occurs exactly after 40 days after the Panchami festival.
Depending on where they are, people like to celebrate Basant Panchami in different ways. For example, many Hindus honor the Goddess Saraswati on this auspicious day. Moreover, with all their creative force and vitality, devotees venerate her. According to Hindu mythology, the goddess Saraswati represents talent, learning, education, and the arts. Moreover, it marks her birth and adoration in diverse places.
