This agricultural festival is performed in the month of ‘Bohag'. On the festival day, the children take an early morning bath and cut two bamboos, cleaning and washing them properly. They decorate the bamboo with colourful clothes. The taller bamboo is considered to be the bridegroom and the shorter one the bride. These bamboos are then planted near the ‘Bhatheli-ghar' (the hut with a roof of banana leaves). The people keep things like ‘prasad', fruits or sweets to fulfill their wishes within this hut. This festival is said to usher in unity, happiness, co-operation and fraternity among the people of different religions and castes.
Some of the other folk festivals of Assam are the ‘Suwari', the ‘Mo-Ho-Ho', the ‘Chou' and the ‘Palnaam'.
