March 2024: The third month in the calendar brings a new season in India. The country observes a change in its weather as the winter season nears its end and the early signs of summer are visible welcoming the Spring season. This 31-day month marks a new season with several important national and international days.
March - the term is acquired from Martius, a Latin word named after the Roman God of War, Mars. People in Ireland honour St. Patrick on March 17 and hence this month is believed to be lucky for many.
The month of March has a lot in store for people in India and worldwide, from festivals to various international and national events.
