Madan Trayodashi- Valentine's Day of Kashmiri Pandits


This day is considered to be Valentine's Days for Kashmiri Pandits, dedicated to Husband Wife relationship or even Boyfriend girl friend. Male partner used to pamper their better half with sacred bath on river banks/lakes. Both used to decorate each other with flowers which was in abundance during this period in Kashmir. This was a day of celebration for unmarried people also as they used to visit river banks to look for companion and propose.
