Vasant Panchami, also called Saraswati Puja in honor of the Hindu goddess Saraswati, is a festival that marks the preparation for the arrival of spring.
The festival of Basant Panchami is centred around the Hindu goddess Saraswati and dominantly tints the surrounding yellow. Yellow is considered to be goddess Saraswati’s favourite colour and also signifies the bloom of the mustard crop.
