Ramayana is one of the two great epics of India. Lord Ram, the central figure of this epic tale, is one of the most widely worshipped Hindu deities. He is believed to be the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu. His birth is celebrated as Ram Navami across the country during March or April every year.

Ram Navami is considered to be one of the biggest and auspicious festivals of Hindus.  This year, Ram Navami will be celebrated on March 30. According to Drik Panchang, the day is observed on Navami tithi (ninth day) during shukla paksha (bright phase) of the Hindu month of Chaitra.
