Makar Sankranti, also known as Uttarayana, Makar, or simply Sankranti, is a Hindu holiday and celebration. This event, which typically occurs on January 15 of each year, signifies the sun’s change from the sign of Sagittarius dhanu to Capricorn Makara. The festival is dedicated to the solar deity, Surya, and is observed to signify a fresh beginning because the sun has made this change, which hazard coincides with traveling from south to north. On this occasion, numerous multi-day indigenous festivals are organized across India.
