VASANT RITU 2023: Most countries around the world observe four seasons in a year. But, in India six seasons are followed as per the local calendars. The classifications of the seasons have been observed since the Vedic period. Vasant Ritu or spring season is also known as Rituraj, which means the King of all the seasons.
During this time, there are neither cold winds nor sweat-dripping summers. The weather during these months is pleasant. According to the Hindu calendar, the Vasant Ritu falls during the months of Chaitra and Baisakh, which corresponds to the period from mid-February to mid-April on the Gregorian calendar.
