Parsi New Year | Celebrated Across The World | On This Day
Parsi New Year is celebrated in India and Pakistan about 200 days after it is celebrated across the world because people in India and Pakistan follow the Shahenshahi calendar and it does not take into account leap years. Also known as Jamshed-i-Nouroz, after the name of the Persian king Jamshed who introduced the Parsi calendar. It is celebrated by people in regions like the USA, the Middle East, Pakistan, and India where it is also a regional holiday.
