Kati Bihu is a traditional festival celebrated in the Indian state of Assam. It usually takes place in October and marks the end of the harvesting season. During this time, people light earthen lamps, known as saki, to ward off evil spirits and seek blessings for a good harvest.
The festival is also a time for community bonding, as families and friends come together to celebrate. Special rituals are performed, including the offering of food to the deities and the lighting of lamps in fields and homes. Kati Bihu reflects the rich cultural heritage of Assam and its agrarian lifestyle.
