Mid of March to mid of April, is the time of spring festivities, including Vasant Panchami, Navroz, Holi, Gudhi Padwa, Ugadi, Cheti Chand, Vaishakhi, Bihu, Navreh, Puthandu and so on.

 

Gudhi Padva signifies the arrival of spring and reaping of Rabi crops, as it’s the first day of Chaitra month, with bright phase of moon, to mark the beginning of the new year according to the lunisolar method of the Hindu calendar. Padava or Paadvo comes from the Sanskrit word Pratipada, which is the first day of a lunar fortnight and is linked to the mythical day on which Shri Brahma created time and universe
