Today, on
fine sunny morning, Witty family celebrated Lohri, a sweet and important
festival of Punjab. The other popular name of Lohri is Makar Sakranti. In
Punjab, on the first harvest, people offer grains in fire. Some offer rice preparation
known as pongal to Sun God, and
distribute the remanants or Prasada
to everyone. People also give charity on
this day.
Teachers and
students of WIS arranged a Bon fire while the students sang and danced
beautifully. Students of Sixth Grade gave speeches both in Hindi and English
which revealed the importance of this festival. To conclude this festival Lohri,
traditional prasada of revri and popcorns were distributed to everyone present.
Happy Lohri!!
