Festival of Tamilnadu-Pongal

 

The second day function is Mattu Pongal. It was celebrated for the cows by the farmers. On that day people decorate their cows. They paint on their horns with different colours ,put garlands to them. They consider it as “Lakshmi” and worship it as . A special pooja was conducted for the cows. In afternoon they perform “bull fight” with their cows. Prizes will be distributed to the winners.

They make pongal and dedicate it to them. The third day function was “Kaanum pongal” .  On that day youngsters meet elders and get their blessings and greetings.
