Annual festival to honour the great Serpants Nag means serpents and panchami refers to the 5th lunar day. This festival takes place annually on the 5th waxing lunar day of special holy month of Shravana. Monthly the 5th tithi belongs to the Nagas. According to the mythology Sage Kashyapa has many wives who were responsible for the birth of different species on earth. Aditi gave birth to the Adityas ( the 12 Sun gods) and godly linegae whereas his other  wife Kadru gave birth to 1000 Nagas. Therefore the Nagas are connected to the gods being born to the same father and are considered divine beings.Fasting on Nag Panchami and celebraing it is the best remedy for Kal Sarpa Yoga
