President Droupadi Murmu on Friday graced the Raja Parb celebrations held at Rashtrapati Bhavan, offering a panoramic view of Odisha's rich cultural heritage.
As part of the festivities, beautifully adorned swings with flowers and mango leaves stood out as the key attractions. Traditional elements like Mehndi artists and a variety of Odia cuisines, including different types of 'pitha', were arranged to enhance the experience, according to an official statement.
This marks the first instance of the Raja Parb, an agriculture-centric festival of Odisha, taking place at the Rashtrapati Bhavan, emphasized the statement. The event offered participants an authentic glimpse into Odia culture and life. Notably, President Murmu, who is a native of Odisha, also enjoyed cultural presentations such as 'Raja geet,' Mayurbhanj Chhau dance, Sambalpuri dance, and Karma dance.
The three-day-long Raja Parb remains one of Odisha's most celebrated festivals, particularly noted for the fervor with which women and children participate during the monsoon onset.
