Makar Sankranti 2024: Celebrating the Festival of Harvest and Sun God

Makar Sankranti, also known as Sankranthi, is a festival that is celebrated all over India to honor Lord Surya, the Sun God, and mark the Sun’s entry into the Capricorn zodiac sign.

In Haryana and Punjab, it is called Maghi; in Tamil Nadu, it is known as Pongal; in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, it is called Khichdi, and in Gujarat and Rajasthan, it is celebrated as Uttarayanan.
