Lahore (HRNW)- Punjab Information Minister Uzma Bukhari formally launched the Basant festival by flying kites at midnight. The sky of Lahore was decorated with kites instead of stars. Kites were flying and cheering on the rooftops, and people came out on the streets to watch the flying and falling kites.
Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has posted a video on social media on the beginning of Basant, in which people are seen flying kites. In her statement on Basant, the Chief Minister said that after 25 years, kites have returned to the sky of Lahore. Let us all celebrate the festival of joy responsibly, follow the safety SOPs and make this Basant safe for everyone.
