Happy MAKAR SANKRANTI
Makar Sankranti marks the onset of summer and the six months auspicious period for Hindus known as Uttaarayan. Dedicated to the sun God, the harvest festival celebrates the beginning of long days. Many take a holy dip in the water to wash away their sins on this auspicious day. In some parts of India Kites Flying is the main celebration of this day.With colourful kites flying in the sky and the aroma of delicious delicacies brewing in the air, Makar Sakranti is filled with fun and frolic.
