Chapchar Kut

Today, people in Mizoram (India) celebrate Chapchar Kut. This festival takes place after the jhum work to prepare the land for future harvests. Legend has it that this festival was born when the hunters returned to the village empty-handed, to compensate for the disappointment, the village chief offered an impromptu feast with rice beer and meat. #mythology #myth #legend #calendar #jhum #6march #mizoram #inde #ChapcharKut
