Glimpses of Lohri celebration hosted by Makkars at their home on January 15

SPRINGFIELD, NJ (TIP): A well-known community activist Dave Makkar and his family hosted a Lohri celebration at their home on January 15. Makkars have been organizing Lohri celebrations for the last 21 years. Dave’s daughter Prachi, and son Surya had their friends from different ethnicities joining them at the celebration.

It was a typical Punjabi Lohri celebration, with Lohri prayers, boliyan,  Jago , bhangra , and the universally popular Dhol. And the food was delectable and reminiscent of back home delicacies which the Makkars could make possible on the occasion-  Makki ki roti and Sarson ka saag ,  Dal, sabzi, and a variety of sweets.
