Mesadi - Vaisakhadi is a festive occasion dedicated to the harvest season, observed each year on either April 14th or 15th.

This Hindu celebration is characterized by vibrant festivities and marks a time of joy and gratitude for the harvest. Despite being a restricted holiday, both government offices and businesses typically remain open. Originally conceived as a gesture of thanksgiving to farmers for their dedicated efforts during the harvest, the festival traditionally symbolizes a new beginning, serving as a New Year in its own right.
