Protest for Farmer’s Festival Recognition in Sorab Town

Protest for Farmer’s Festival Recognition in Sorab Town

In Sorab Town, people gathered to protest in front of the municipal office.

They want the roundabout there to be called 'Farmer’s Circle' and for the government to officially recognize the Hori festival.

Hori is a traditional game played by farmers after the harvest season.

The protesters believe that this festival is important and should be respected like other festivals in the country.

They have tried to get the government's attention before by talking to important officials and even going to court.

During the protest, they showed off decorated bulls, which are part of the festival's traditions.

The leaders of the protest said that farmers take care of their bulls like their children and that the Hori festival should be allowed to continue without any problems.
