We wanted to organize a festival that is totally owned by the communities.” The idea has been wholeheartedly welcomed and people originally from countries like Yemen, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, etc have registered themselves for the festival.
This festival will have no hoteliers or commercial interests but concentrate specifically on cultural variations. A certain sweet can be prepared differently in different parts of the country. So the stalls here will not be according to the states, but the dish that is being offered on it. So, on each stall one can get a variety from across the country of the dish.
While there will be some sweets that would be made from home, there will also be on the spot preparations. So one can enjoy some sweets hot and relish them better. A sweet lover will know the delight of having a freshly made delicacy. The organizers have even launched a mobile app and website for the same. In fact, this festival will be in line with the kite festival organized by the state every year, so no doubts it will be a grand one.
