PRESIDIANS WELCOME THE NEW HARVEST SEASON WITH LOHRI CELEBRATION
Dated: 13-01-2022
The festival of Lohri, which is celebrated primarily by Sikhs and Hindus all across India, marks the end of the winter season and is traditionally believed to welcome the sun to the northern hemisphere. Observed a night before Makar Sankranti, this occasion involves a Puja Parikrama around the bonfire with prasad, dhol, colorful clothing, and a lot of happiness. This year, for Presidium, the festival of Lohri was different as it was held virtually. Nonetheless, our students participated enthusiastically in the festivities via different songs, rhymes, and energetic dance performances. The students also made some beautiful crafts for the celebration. The boundless joy of celebrating the festival was visible on the faces of all the students.
