Makara Sankranti, the harvest festival dedicated to the Sun God, was celebrated with religious fervour across the city and in villages.
Although the grandeur was not on par with previous years, a large number of women were seen visiting houses, performing the practice of Ellu Birodhu, which involves carrying a plate containing Sesame Seeds (Ellu) and Jaggery (Bella) and other ingredients like fried groundnuts, coconut, sugarcane pieces and sweets with them to offer others.
As part of the festival, women also drew colourful rangolis outside their homes and decorated the front doors with mango leaves and flowers. The deities were worshipped and offered Pongal, Ellu-Bella and other ingredients as Nyvedya.
