India's festivals are diverse, and the same celebration can have different names, foods and customs across regions. Start with the festival, then add the regional tradition or activity actually shown.

Major festival topics

The site includes separate topic pages for Diwali, Holi, Navratri, Dussehra, Ganesh Chaturthi, Pongal, Makar Sankranti, Lohri, Onam, Vishu, Ugadi, Gudi Padwa, Baisakhi, Durga Puja, Maha Shivratri, Ram Navami and Janmashtami.

Regional context matters

A Pongal post from Tamil Nadu, an Onam post from Kerala or a Durga Puja post from Kolkata can be described more accurately with regional terms. Use them when the location or cultural context is genuinely part of the post.

Respect the occasion

Festival tags are not generic engagement bait. Use devotional, religious or cultural labels only when the content is actually about that observance, and avoid making claims that the post cannot support.

Let regional culture show through the content

Indian festival content is not one uniform category. The same festival can appear through different foods, clothing, rituals, art forms and local names. A strong page therefore gives the user routes into regional context instead of forcing a single national template. Pongal, Onam, Durga Puja, Baisakhi and Ganesh Chaturthi each have distinct visual and cultural cues. Use a regional term when it is genuinely part of the post, and keep the wording respectful rather than turning cultural details into generic engagement bait.
