Basant Panchami marks the arrival of spring and is celebrated with devotion and enthusiasm. The day is primarily associated with Goddess Saraswati, whose blessings are sought for enlightenment and wisdom. Worshipping her on this day is believed to help remove ignorance, lethargy, and sluggishness.

Now today I'm making meethe Chawal, is a popular North Indian meal made with rice, saffron, milk, sugar, dry fruits & spices. This aromatic rice dessert is loved by everyone for its comforting taste and flavor.
We offer goddess Sarasvati as a "bhog" and seek blassing for knowledge.. 🙏
