Lohri hamare yahaan Punjab mein aur Haryana, Himachal mein bhi manyi jaati hai. Kal raat se aur aaj Lohri manaayi ja rahi hai. Raat ko jagah jagah chaurahon par gharon ke aanganon mein lakadiyaan jalaayi jaati hain aaj din bhar patang udayi jaa rahi hai. Asmaan patangon se chhaya hua hai. Thandd ko ghar se bahar kar diya aur sharad ritu ka prakop is din ke baad se kamm ho jaata hai, aisi maanyata hai.
