Gudi Padwa is celebrated on the first day of the Chaitra month according to the Hindu calendar in Maharashtra. The word padava comes from the Sanskrit word pratipada, which refers to the first day of a lunar fortnight. This day is considered an auspicious day that marks the New Year, celebrates the arrival of the spring season and the reaping of Rabi crops. The word Gudhi means a flag. A stick decorated with a bright cloth, neem leaves, and garlands is unfurled outside every Maharashtrians house, hence the name Gudi Padwa.
