Answer:

The kite flying festival in India falls on 14th of January every year, marking the arrival of spring and the transition of the sun into the Makara Rashi (the Capricorn zodiac sign). In quite a few states in India, Makar Sankranti is considered as a major harvest festival. It’s significance lies in it’s commemoration of Goddess Sankranti’s triumph over evil and the brutal Rakshasa Sankarasur (demon), who would torture and kill humans.

It is also a festival where people come together in celebration and bury their hatchets, offering each other sweets in a joyous atmosphere.
