Sri Rama Navami is the auspicious appearance day of Lord Sri Ramachandra. Sri Ramachandra appeared in the month of Chaitra (March – April), on the ninth day of the growing moon (Chaitra Masa, Shukla Paksha, Navami Tithi) and this particular day is celebrated as Sri Rama Navami every year. This year we celebrate the festival on April 14, 2019.
The celebration takes place predominantly in northern states during the month of April (Chaitra). The nine-day long celebration also marks the beginning of Hindu New Year.While most of the devotees fast throughout the nine-days of celebration, there are many who observe fast on the first and the last day.
