As winter is bidding adieu, it's time to welcome the spring season and celebrate the festival of Basant Panchami. This year Vasant Panchami will be observed on 5th February. Vasant literally means "spring" and Panchami means "fifth day". Thus, the festival is celebrated on the fifth day of the spring season of the Hindu month of Magha, which typically falls in late January or February. Vasant Panchami also announces the arrival of Holi which takes place forty days later. The festival is also referred to as Saraswati Puja or Saraswati Jayanti as devotees worship Goddess Saraswati to get enlightened with knowledge and to get rid of lethargy, sluggishness, and ignorance. Basant Panchami 2022 Date With Dos and Don’ts: From Not Touching Books to Wearing Yellow Clothes, Things To Keep in Mind To Seek Blessings on Saraswati Puja.

On this day, people initiate educating their children by performing a ritual known as 'Akshar-Abhyasam' or 'Vidya-Arambham/Praasana' in Hindi. Moreover, the colour yellow holds a great significance for the festival. As yellow colour signifies the ripening of fruits, and flowers of mustard crops, which Hindus associate with Devi Saraswati's favourite shade. People wear yellow colour attire and prepare yellow delicacies like Khichdi and Boondi Ladoo. Vibrant and sparkling kites grace the sky and set the tone of the festival.
