On the occasion of Makar Sankranti, Prime Minister Narendra Modi engaged in the traditional activity of feeding cows at his residence in Delhi. PM Modi was quoted saying, "The country celebrated the festival of Lohri yesterday. Some people are celebrating Makar Sankranti today and some people will celebrate tomorrow, Magh Bihu is also coming, I extend my greetings to the countrymen for these festivals." This gesture coincided with the festive period that also includes celebrations like Lohri and Magh Bihu.
