In Lucknow, the post-Diwali festival of Jamghat was celebrated with enthusiasm for kite-flying. From the morning, people enjoyed the festival by flying kites from city rooftops and open grounds. Colourful kites were seen across the sky, and a strong sense of excitement over kite-flying was visible at many places.
This time, kites featuring pictures of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also remained a centre of attraction in the markets. People bought these kites and flew their preferred designs in the sky on the occasion of the festival. Children, youth and elderly people all took part in the traditional event.
During the kite-flying, appeals to boycott Chinese manjha were also seen. People stressed adopting safe and local alternatives. In view of the possibility of accidents and injuries caused by Chinese manjha, a message was given to avoid its use.
The enthusiasm seen on Lucknow’s rooftops during Jamghat reflected the city’s old kite-flying tradition and the festive spirit.
