Narada Jayanti is celebrated by the Hindu community across the country. They observe this day to mark the birth anniversary of Devrishi Narada Muni. This special Jayanti is marked on Pratipada Tithi during Krishna Paksha of Jyeshtha month, according to the Purnimant (North Indian calendar). In the South Indian Amavasyant calendar, this Jayanti falls during Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha month on PratipadaTithi.
