Magh Bihu, also known as Bhogali Bihu, is a significant harvest festival in Assam celebrated in mid-January. In 2026, it falls on January 15, with the eve, Uruka, observed on January 14. The festival marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of a new agricultural cycle, coinciding with Makar Sankranti. Celebrations involve building temporary huts (Meji/Bhelaghar), preparing traditional feasts, and community gatherings. Rituals include burning the Meji for blessings and seeking prosperity, reflecting unity, gratitude, and cultural traditions.
