According to Hindu calendar, Nag Panchami falls on the fifth day of Shravan month. It usually comes a couple of days after Hariyali Teej.
It is believed that worshiping on this day will protect you from all kinds of snakes. Some people also mark this day as the victory of Lord Krishna over Kaliya snake. Milk, sweets, flowers and lamps are offered to serpents in order to bring good luck to one's life.
