Amaravati, January 05, 2026: The Amaravati Press Club turned the Nalanda School grounds in Vijayawada into a lively village-like setting for pre-Sankranti festivities on January 4.
Journalists, families, and children took part in a day filled with tradition, lighting the Bhogi bonfire to honour unity across generations, enjoying Haridasu devotional songs, Gangireddulu folk shows, rangoli designs featuring gobbemmas, kite-flying contests, and symbolic rooster fights
