Chaitra, Vaishakha, Jyeshtha, Ashadha, Shravana, Bhadrapada (or Bhadra), Ashvina, Kartik, Margashirsha, Pausha, Magha, and Phalguna.
The names of the
Punjabi Desi months
are:
Chet, Vaisakh, Jeth, Harh, Sawan, Bhadon, Assu, Katik, Maghar, Poh, Magh, and Phagan
– These months are lunar-based, so their exact dates shift each year in the Gregorian calendar.
– In Hindu tradition, months start from the day after the full moon or new moon, depending on whether it’s the Purnimanta or Amanta calendar system.
– Regions like North India and South India may observe month names slightly differently based on their local calendar systems.
