He said that generally Happy New Year is celebrated when 365 days have passed since the Earth revolves around the Sun, whereas this revolution takes 365 days, 5 hours, 48 ​​minutes and 45 seconds to complete. To accommodate this extra 6 hours, after every four years, an extra day is added to the month of February to make it a leap year. Due to this, adjustment of the calendar month and its associated weather is maintained.

Scientific summary also states that generally a leap year is identified by dividing the number of a year by four. A full portion of 400 is also given for its other tests. So celebrate this extra special day in a very special way, because the next 29th February will have to wait for 2028.
