Festivals of India
India is a land of diversity with each
state boasting its own culture and heritage. It is a jigsaw puzzle of people
of every faith and religion, living together to create a unique and
colourful mosaic. There is a festival for every reason and for every season.
Every celebration centres around rituals of prayer, seeking blessings,
exchanging goodwill, decorating houses, wearing new clothes, music, dance
