Traditional three-day-long Boisabi festival of the indigenous people of different ethnic communities in Khagrachhari started on Monday on limited scale due to Coronavirus pandemic.

Chakma and Tripura people in the district have released flowers on the Changi River and different canals on Monday, the first day of the three-day traditional Bizu festival.

Wearing traditional dresses, young ladies, children released the flowers on the Changi River in the morning praying for the conclusion of Coronavirus pandemic and removal of all frustrations and sorrows of the previous year.

Following the last year, the celebration was held on a limited scale also this year without arranging any cultural programme or sports event due to the Covid-19.
