While India joins the rest of the world in ringing in the Gregorian New Year on January 1 with lots of hopes of a fresh beginning, new resolutions, and majestic fireworks, the traditional New Year’s Day varies from state to state in this diverse country. Different regions observe New Year\u2019s Day on a different date as decided by the traditional (solar\/ lunar) calendar. Thus, it comes as no surprise that the multi-cultural Bharat celebrates not one, but many New Year’s Days known by various names like Ugadi, Gudi Padwa, Puthandu, Vishu, Navreh, etc. in various parts of India. Their New Year’s traditions reflect the rich cultural diversity of the country. As the world gears up for New Year 2023, let\u2019s take a look at traditional New Year\u2019s celebrations across India.<\/p>
