@dsourceindia The kite season commences with the Makara Sankranthi or the Uttarayan celebrations on January 14th every year in India. This day can be truly called “Kite Day” as numerous kites in many towns and cities compete with each other for a spot in the sky nearly blotting out the sun! The weather is clear on this day, spring-like and is perfect for kite flying. On this single day, so many kites take to the skies, with families participating by being together on rooftops, and open lands, flying the kites that traditional kite-makers of India spend the entire year making. This is a day when everyone spends time together, with family and friends and has a fun-filled day. The festival is celebrated with great joy and enthusiasm in all parts of the country.
