Sankranti is celebrated in Punjab as LOHARI. December and January
being the coldest
months of the year, huge bonfires are lit on the eve
of Sankranti. Sweets, sugarcane and rice are
thrown in the bonfires, around which friends and relatives gather around. The
following day, which is Sankranti is celebrated as
MAGHI. A sumptuous meal is prepared on
this
day, and revelers also celebrate the festival through dance, like the Bhangra.
