The new year started on a happy note with new dreams and goals. The city temperature is giving nagpurians goosebumps as it is getting colder and colder. A city known for warmest summers all over India will now be known for cold winters too. School going children find it very difficult to wake up in the morning due to dip in morning temperature.
Hanuman Jayanti is celebrated on the full moon day (Pournima) in the month of Chaitra. Chaitra month starts with festivals like Gudi Padwa then Ram Navami, Mahavir Jayanti and Hanuman Jayanti.
