Rann Utsav 2025 Adds UNESCO Site Dholavira
Imagine a big festival called Rann Utsav, happening in a place called Kutch.
This festival is like a fun party that shows off the area's culture.
Next year, the festival is getting even bigger by adding a special, old place called Dholavira.
Dholavira is an ancient city with cool buildings and a smart water system, built long ago.
The festival will have games, shows, and crafts, and the organizers want to be eco-friendly.
This will attract tourists and help the local people.
Rann Utsav will include Dholavira, a UNESCO World Heritage site, for the first time.
The festival runs from October 23, 2025, to March 2026.
Dholavira is an ancient Harappan city known for its urban planning.
