NEW YEAR (FROM CHAITRA)

Image
From 14th March 2021, New year has started (according to hindi calendar).  In Uttarakhand, in some places, people pay a visit to their daughter's house. Their wife prepares swal and meethi puuris for their daughter 's home and for their neighborhood (to be given as a kalyo). Father or brother can serve the purpose.  In some other areas, flowers are dropped in every corridor (dehli) by young children every morning .These children pluck the flowers that are not sucked by wasp or any other insect. In return these children are offered sweets, pakoris, etc.  Sorry to all the readers for delay of this special post 🙁🙁 HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
