As we have entered into the New Year, people usually celebrate this day with their loved ones, and some like to party, whereas some want to stay at home. Tamil Nadu witnessed one such celebration where the members of the Kota tribe in Nilgiri Hills performed a traditional folk dance to welcome the new year. IAS officer Supriya Sahu posted the videos on Twitter on December 31, which show the tribal members dancing around a massive bonfire while instrumental folk music is played and applause is heard. They are all wearing white clothing. "Kotas are ancient inhabitants of Nilgiris.Their striking white attire gives a surreal feel & the graceful dance transports us to another world #HappyNewYear,” reads the caption.
