Telugu Calendar 2020 incorporates all the important dates and timings of Telugu festivals and fasts. It is also known as Panchangam in South India. We can see diversification in India in terms of different cultures and traditions. Indians celebrate every festival with great zeal and happiness. It could be any festivals like Pongal or Onam, Eid or Holi, national holidays, wherein we pay tribute to the martyrs of India. It would be much more difficult to remember the dates and time of each festival, hence a calendar is prepared in a tabulated form.
