It is celebrated on the eve of Makar Sankranti to mark the conclusion of the winter solstice and the beginning of longer days.
In addition to celebrating the crop harvest, Lohri marks the end of the winter season. The nation as a whole, but especially Punjab and Northern India, celebrate Lohri with great joy and happiness. (ANI)
