It was a success with its sheer number of participants. More than that it came as an opportunity for all people to have countenance with their friends, relatives and to just spend golden moments with others.
Drop in temperature didn’t deter people from participating in the programme. They came from every pockets of Delhi and NCR region. People came from Patparganj, Dilshad Garden, Laxmi Nagar, Lado Sarai, Sagarpur, Manglapuri , CR Park, Shyam Vihar, Dwarka etcetra areas. In these areas concentration of Bishnupriya Manipuris show a sizable population.
People braved the foggy day to be in association with their own people. And that was something very visible in the faces of the people. They were all in a festive mood to celebrate the event of togetherness. Youngsters were seen playing football. And ladies busy in talking and cooking.
