Nagara Panchami
 Nagara
Panchami falls on the 5th day of the bright half of the solar month of
Shravana. On this day, newly married girls visit their parents. Swings are put up in the town on which both adults and children indulge themselves without any inhabitation, irrespective of caste, creed or sex. The religious part of the festival consists of offering worship to cobras and snakes by pouring milk. In numerous houses, clay images of snakes are worshipped.
