Nag Panchami 2025: How it is celebrated in India?

The day of Nag Panchami is considered a powerful day in Hinduism. Hindu devotees across the country and also in Nepal celebrate this auspicious occasion. According to legend, the Kathmandu Valley was once a lake that was overrun by deadly snakes, making it impossible for people to live there peacefully. As a result, they worshipped Nagas and assigned each one of them a particular place. Since then, Nag Panchami has been joyfully and enthusiastically celebrated.

Ujjain celebrates this day, and as Nag Chandreshwar Temple only opens on Nag Panchami Day, devotees get an opportunity to have a glimpse of Nag Chandreshwar and offer their sincere prayer to all the Nagas. Devotees can see Lord Nag Chandreshwar at Mahakaleshwar Temple, which is open twenty-four hours on this particular day.

In Haridwar, Nag Panchami is also observed at the Mansa Mata Temple, where many devotees come to catch a glimpse of Goddess Mansa, the Goddess of all the Nagas and revered as Lord Shiva's daughter.

Nag Panchami 2025: History

Hindu scriptures state that Janmajeya, the son of Parikshit, organized a Yagya for Nagas in an attempt to avenge the Takshak serpent and wipe off their entire clan after his father was killed by that serpent. To protect all the snakes, the son of Aastik Muni and Rishi Jaratkaru stopped this Yajna. The Yajna was halted by Shravan Shukla Panchami. He spared Takshak Snake and his clan. Since then, Nag Panchami has received recognition.
