Muskmelon ( Cucumis melo ), commonly known as Kharbooja (Hindi), Kharbuj (Urdu), or Chibbar (Punjabi), is a popular summer fruit in India. It is prized for its sweet, aromatic flesh and high water content, making it a natural cooler against the Indian summer heat. Unlike watermelons (available nearly year-round in some regions), the muskmelon season in India is distinctly and relatively short.
Modern varieties like TRS-Goldy and Gulmahor are increasingly popular in supermarkets for their uniform shape and longer shelf life. 4. Health & Culinary Culture muskmelon season in india
