Celebrating Makar Sankranti 2025: Soaring High for Equality and Justice

Makar Sankranti is a festival of joy, hope, and gratitude that marks the transition of the sun into the Makara (Capricorn) Rashi, symbolizing new beginnings and prosperity. At Human Rights & Social Justice Mission (HRSJM), this festival inspires us to rise above challenges and work towards a brighter, more equitable future for all.

The Spirit of Makar Sankranti

Makar Sankranti is celebrated across India with great enthusiasm, known by various names such as Pongal, Uttarayan, and Lohri. The festival is about expressing gratitude for the harvest, flying kites, and strengthening the bonds of community.

However, for many underprivileged individuals, this celebration remains out of reach. At HRSJM, we aim to bridge this gap by ensuring everyone has the opportunity to participate in the festivities and feel the joy of Sankranti.

The Meaning of Sankranti for Social Justice

Just as the sun begins its northward journey (Uttarayan), Makar Sankranti represents progress and positivity. For HRSJM, this progress translates into working tirelessly to eliminate inequality, discrimination, and social injustice.

We believe that every individual deserves to soar like a kite, free from the struggles of poverty, inequality, and injustice.
