Goodbye Cold, Welcome Warmth: Bonfire festival of Lohri
Lohri celebrations at Tamil Nadu House, New Delhi.
As the fire is lit, people's faces glow with joy, and the celebration of Lohri gets underway. It is an event to celebrate the end of the dry and cold days of the North Indian Winter.
Lohri, is typically a North Indian festival especially celebrated in the breadbasket of India, the Punjab. Its origins can be traced to various folklore and religious beliefs. It is mainly believed to be the cultural celebration of the winter solstice and hence it marks the end of the bitter cold winter, the beginning of longer days and basically more sunlight. It also marks the harvesting of the Rabi crops.
