Gudhi Padwa


A new beginning for add joy and enlightenment. This festival is celebrated as a new year by Maharashtrians, Karnataka and Andhra communities. Gudhi is a symbol of victory. To symbolize that God only has achieved victory at every level of war, a Gudhi is hoisted next to the main entrance of the house. This accasion is also marked by geographical importance signifying the sun's rays increasing in intensity, going from mellow to hot.
Legend of the photo : The young beggars of my area, stop for a moment to play in the blanks spaces of writing in chalk, on the street, at night, by other neighbors and holding the message "Happy new year"
.........I wish a special and real Happy new year to all children in India !
