Saraswati Puja is linked to Vasant Panchami, as it marks the beginning of the spring season on the fifth of the Magha month. Depending on different regions, the festival is dedicated to goddess Saraswati, as the season brings forth the ripening of the yellow flowers of mustard, which Hindus associate with Saraswati's favourite colour.
