Answer is Wrong!
Answer is Right!
The correct answer is: a) Feasting and bonfires.
Magh Bihu (or Bhogali Bihu) is the third and final harvest festival of the Assamese year. It is celebrated in the month of Magh (January-February) and marks the end of the winter season. The festival is a time for feasting, bonfires, and merrymaking. People gather together to eat, drink, and dance. Bonfires are lit to ward off evil spirits and to welcome the spring season.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Option b) Prayers for a good harvest is associated with Rongali Bihu, the first harvest festival of the Assamese year.
- Option c) Colorful dances and music are associated with all three Bihu festivals.
- Option d) Visiting relatives and friends is associated with Bohag Bihu, the second harvest festival of the Assamese year.
