Dahi Handi - Krishna Janma


On 4th September at Sandnya Srushti campus we celebrated Dahi Handi programme.This was celebrated after teachers day programme. Dahi handi is a earthenware pot in which there is butter. It is said that Krishna was fond of butter, which he used to steel from his own house with out the knowledge of his mother Yashoda ma. This dahi handi is hanged at a hight from the ground where it is not possible to reach with out making a human pyramid. There every time the group makes a attempt and fails, there is a loud laughter amongst the watchers who enjoy this so called Krishna lila. In our school also we celebrate this dahi handi. It is not only fun but it gives good opportunity to our mentally challenged children to get socialized and a chance to make a attempt physically also. This opportunity they can never get in their locality or neighborhood. After starting this event in our open ground, it started raining heavily. We all were forced to get in to the building. But our children got opportunity to get wet in to the rain water, this opportunity is also not available to them like their normal peers.
