As we celebrate Pahela Baishakh after the advent of spring, we are reminded that the Babylonians who were in fact the first observer of a New Year about (4000) four thousand years ago. Celebrations of the New year are the oldest of all holidays.
In Bangladesh, the BangIa new year is celebrated on 14, April. In Sri-Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, Laos, Combodia and Thailand, people celebrate their new year around the same time. It is interesting that their new year festivities too coincide with April
