Re: saraswati puja
Dear Nikita, As i stayed in most of the part of India we celebrate all oriya fesvial including saraswati puja as we have our own oriya association...it is not mostly celebrate in all school in India...
As Saraswati puja is also known as Basant Panchami mostly in haryana and punjab..In Hindi language, the word '' basant / vasant'' means ''spring'' and ''panchami'' means the fifth day. In short, Basant Panchami is celebrated as the fifth day of Spring Season... Yellow color is given special attention and dominates everywhere on this particular day.....Yellow color is associated with Goddess Saraswati as well as the mustard crop. People wear yellow clothes, make yellow color sweets on the day of Saraswati Puja. ..
