विशेष संस्कृति अथवा परम्परा विशेष कृषि प्रथा काठैर, व्रज प्रदेश में फसल कटाई पर फसल के कुछ पौधों को छोड़ दिया जाता है ताकि पक्षी दाना चुग सकें। और कृषक महिलाऐं गीत गाती हैं। इस परम्परा के संरक्षण की आवश्यकता है। इस परम्परा को बढ़ावा दिया जाए।

All our big and small festivals mostly have agricultural and medicinal background.All the foods of the festival seasons have the power to ward off the infectious diseases of their respective seasons.All the festive foods and customs help in developing morals, virtues and social contribution.Besides keeping farmers alive, we should celebrate festivals that promote our physical, mental and social health.We care about the likes and comments that strangers give us on social media.Trust us during festivals.Help those who are waiting.We should celebrate the festival so that we and the farmers, traders and artists around us will be well.Festivals are what bring us together with society.Support local products and local businesses. Govt should issue invitations for everyone to celebrate with traditional dress & food Every moment of the festival day is important and should avoid cinema, alcohol etc

India has a very diverse culture and each region has its own style of celebration. If you love exploring the culture of India, you must attend these unique and lesser-known festivals of India. With the second-largest population in the world and the biggest democracy, India offers an endless variety of cultures and beliefs. It’s a country, where you will step into a new kind of cultural community every few hundred kilometers and this also brings with it a variety of customs and celebrations. We, Indians don’t just accommodate all but celebrate life to its fullest. It can literally be called the ‘land of festivals’ where rich cultures, traditions, and beliefs coexist at their vibrant best. There are several prominent festivals that are celebrated across the country and include the Durga Puja in West Bengal, Ganapati Chaturthi in Maharashtra, Diwali across the country, Holi specific to Northern India but again celebrated all over, Dushera as the alternative to Durga Puja.

Innovative Steps from Shreya Naigaonkar. As this is the age of modern technology, I feel, our creative steps should now also be technologized and moreover being one of the massive users of Google browser, Step 1- we can collaborate with the Google itself to dedicate a "Google for Doodle" for that every festival which is unsung amongst many. Step 2- While opening any of our government apps or webpages, a 30 second video dedicated to that lesser-known festival should be played first. Step 3- There should be countrywide online quizzes/competitions held on the occasion of that festival in order to highlight its importance. I strongly believe that by implementing these small changes can bring about a huge difference.

*Indoor block & board games (like Business) should be designed based on various festivals & cultural heritage. *A very interesting mobile app should be created with lots of quizzes & awards. *On the walls of railway stations, cities, auditoria etc. frescoes depicting lesser known festivals can be made. *Brochures should be distributed to the visitors of historical monuments with the relevant info about various festivals etc. *Phone ringtones could be made based on our regional/folk songs. *Interesting drama/playing kits can be designed based on the celebration of festivals or Cultural Events. *Reading comprehension exercises based on our culture and lesser known festivals is a sure shot way to enhance the students' knowledge in this area. *Interstate Festival & Cultural knowledge exchange programs should be organised by schools & colleges. *The best way to share this knowledge is during storytelling sessions at the primary level in the schools. Jai Hind!

*Animated films can be made based on our festivals & culture. Kids will enjoy & learn. This will save them from watching harmful cartoons too! *Documentary films should be made. *In each film, atleast one festival/fair/folk dance etc. should be included. *Actors & other famous personalities should come forward for promotion. *This info should be included in the syllabus in schools. *In kitty parties, everyone must bring brief info about our ancient festivals/culture. *Picture book series should be published for kids. *Ocassions like birthday parties etc. could be used to share such info and play games based on the same. As return gifts, books based on Cultural knowledge should be preferred. *Collecting info regarding our lesser known festivals should be assigned as group projects in schools & colleges. *District/State/National level competitions must be organized. *Newspapers can play a vital role by creating a section solely for spreading this information. Jai Hind!
