New Delhi, January 22: Millions across India and the global diaspora are preparing to celebrate Basant Panchami 2026 on Friday, January 23.

Basant Panchami is deeply rooted in the transition of seasons, specifically the blooming of yellow mustard fields across Northern India. In Hindu tradition, the color yellow symbolizes energy, optimism, and the "Abujh Muhurat" - a day so auspicious that new ventures, weddings, and educational milestones can be initiated without consulting a traditional priest.
Goddess Saraswati, the deity of wisdom, music, and art, is the focal point of the day. Students often place their books and pens at her feet to seek blessings for academic success, while artists and musicians dedicate their instruments to the goddess.
