The Bodoland Mohotsav is set to unfold in Delhi, highlighting the theme 'Ethos of Peace and Harmony, an integral part for Nation Building.' Scheduled for November 15-16 at SAI Indira Gandhi Stadium, the festival promises a vibrant exhibition of Bodoland's cultural and economic offerings, from literature to tourism.

Organized by key organizations, including the All Bodo Students Union and Bodo Sahitya Sabha, with aid from the Bodoland Territorial Council, the event aims to introduce Delhi to Bodoland's rich heritage.

The gathering underscores the Bodo people's deep-rooted history in Assam and their widespread influence. Cultural rallies and discussions on language and tourism will further spotlight the region's vibrant culture.
