Navanna: Smiles on the faces of farmers with new paddy

The Dhaka Times Desk good morning Today is Thursday, 20 November 2014 Christ, 6 Agrahayan 1421 Bangabd, 26 Muharram 1436 Hijri. Good morning everyone from The Dhaka Times. Happy birthday to all those whose birthday is today - happy birthday.

With the fall of the month of Agrahayan, the harvest of paddy has fallen in the fields. Winter will come after this paddy rises. Then the pitha festival will start in the house of the farmer. It is like a thousand years history of Bengali.

With the onset of winter, there is a rush of rice harvesting from house to house. After a few days, the process of making pitha will begin. For hundreds of years, pitha-puli smoke fell after Navanna among Bengalis. Date jaggery pita - a unique item. These cultures of Bengalis have been going on evenly for ages, keeping all narrowness above them. Farmers do not have leisure at this time. But still they have a smile on their face. This smile is a smile of satisfaction.
