Saraswati Pooja is observed on Vasant Panchami to worship Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge, wisdom, music, and arts. This day also marks the arrival of spring (Vasant Ritu). Students, teachers, artists, and scholars celebrate this festival with great devotion.

During the pooja, books, pens, musical instruments, and educational tools are placed before the goddess and worshipped. Many children begin their education (Vidyarambh) on this auspicious day. Yellow-colored clothes and sweets are commonly used, symbolizing energy and prosperity.
