Upkar Association Kuwait, one of the prominent Association of Indians formed in Kuwait, planned Lohri celebrations and a picnic for all its members on January 13th 2023. Lohri is a popular winter North Indian festival, to commemorate the passing of the winter solstice. Lohri marks the end of winter, and is a traditional welcome of longer days and sun's journey to the northern hemisphere. People celebrate the festival by meeting family and friends and lighting a bonfire around which everyone gathers to celebrate.
The members spent a beauitiful day in the sun- with games for all ages, delicious food and music. A number of members could be seen flying beautiful kites- typical of Lohri & Makar Sankranti; others played cricket, dodge ball, throwball- it was a great day to catch up with family & friends to celebrate! The evening ended with the lighting of the bonfire and distribution of popcorn and revadi!
