Kite flying in Multan, Pakistan
Hi hive and liktu friends.
Hopefully all of you are fine. Here earlier in Pakistan, kite flying was celebrated with great enthusiasm. About five years ago, when two or three such incidents occurred here some time ago, due to which people died, this kite flying was banned. People are very fond of flying kites, so now again kite flying has started here because when we were kids we used to tease a lot and till now we are doing it in the same way and we have never stopped. Why is it happening. Kite flying season here in Pakistan starts around November and there is a lot of kite flying every Friday and Saturday.
This is a hobby that is very popular among children and adults too, there is such a party here that food is prepared at night and kite flying is also done at night. It is a white colored kite that is flown at night so that it can be seen and some people are so keen that they attach a small light on top of their kite which is mixed inside and they fly at night. Time is also visible. A few days ago I also received a call from one of my friends and he said that this time we will also celebrate Basand very loudly. and last Friday, we all friends flew kites together, it was a lot of fun and we made a plan that next year, when Sindh will be there,
we will celebrate in the same way and have dinner at night Will arrange. Now I am about twenty-five years old and I remember that when I was ten years old, I was very fond of kite flying, then when it was banned, then for some time it was very strict. Due to this, people stopped flying kites here, but now this is the second year, here again people are fulfilling their passion and flying kites. Different dates are celebrated here in every city, like here it was not celebrated in Pindi a few days ago and now it is celebrated in Multan after a few days and in the same way the people of each city select their own day. Because on the day on which they are all free, then on that day his day is kept so that every servant can enjoy.
And if we talk about the price of these kites at that time, I remember very well that when we used to get these goons before the ban, they were fetching 10 to 20 Pakistani rupees and this time when we got them. So you know the same kite that used to get twenty rupees, now that kite Pakistani is getting it for this rupee and which is a bigger kite as you can see that I have shared a yellow color kite in a picture. At the time, its price is approximately three and a half Pakistani rupees. If we talk about this hobby here, then the child who is 10 years old or 8 years old is also very fond of flying kites here. They ask their parents to get us kites.
I'll share everything with you next Friday when it's like here and you have to let me know if there is an event like this in your city or not. The way we see that kite flying is also shown in movies, if we watch Indian movies, there too, kite flying is played very fondly in India, which we have also seen in movies and I have a friend who Lives in India, they also fly kites with great passion.

Very nice post my friend.
I enjoyed seeing your nice kite and reading about the history in your country of kite flying.
Thanks alot dear.
That first kite is so beautiful!
The yellow one was the largest of the number we had. With this kite we cut many people's kites. Next Friday will be basand here in Multan, there will be a lot of fun here and people will celebrate with great enthusiasm.
too sad that there are some incidents where people lost their lives because of the kite.
stay safe, and enjoy the kite.
Yeah
