The resident association of
LIC Colony, Canara Bank and GH Layout had two days ago organised a Rangoli competition
for women.
The event was held at the BMP
ground adjacent to the BBMP Office in LIC Colony and which is located just off
the beautiful LIC Colony park.
The competition was open for residents
of the LIC Colony, Canara Bank Layout
and GH Layout in Jayanagar 3rd Block, Bangalore. This was one among the many contests organised for women. The
competition drew several women and the Rangoli was drawn on the concrete floor
of the BBMP playground.
As we all know, Rangoli is a
daily ritual among Hindu households and it is drawn in front of the house early
morning. The Rangoli has religious significance and it is called by different
names in different regions and different states of India
Rangoli is a floor art and it
is drawn on festive occasions and in front of Kalyana Mantapas, temples and venues
where religious events are being organised. There are several books on Rangoli.
While Rangoli is generally drawn
with white chalk powder every day, it is given a hue of colours on festive
occasions and in competitions.
