Answer:
FESTIVALS OF INDIA
--- Karan/ Karuna, ABC Public School.

It is said that “Greatness of a culture can be found in its festivals”. India has proved every word
of the saying right by being famously known as the “Land of Festivals” .True to this belief, India
has scores and scores of festivals that bring happiness and joy all across the country.This is
because of the diverse cultures that exist in this subcontinent. All these different cultures and
religions get tied together in bonds of love with these invisible threads of celebrations.

Every festival has a social, religious and mythological value. Accordingly, Dussehra has a great
significance. Similarly, the Janmashtami festival has also a great religious and social
significance. This is the occasion when Lord Krishna was born to kill Kansa and other demons
and save the people from a great danger. This festival also teaches us how to fight evil and
falsehood and establish truth.

On these festivals, people offer prayers to their deities, wear ethnic clothes and make merry with
their near and dear ones. Ganesh Chaturthi, Eid Ul Fitr, Baisakhi, Onam, Pongal, Gurupurab,
Ram Navami and Durga Puja are some of the festivals that are celebrated with immense zeal in
different parts of India with some of these being specific to a particular region.

No wonder, our country is called a land of festivals.
