This is one of the festivals of Punjab that is celebrated throughout the country but more so in the state of Punjab. The festival celebrates the onset of the very brief spring season in India. Considered to be an auspicious day when Goddess Saraswati is worshipped, it’s also considered to be one of the best days to get married, buy a house or starting a new venture. While all over the country, the festival is celebrated in honour of Goddess Saraswati, who is the goddess of learning and knowledge, one of the things that stands out about this festival in Punjab is the numerous colourful kites that can be seen bobbing around in the sky. People also wear yellow clothes which stand out and look beautiful.
