The New INDIAN EXPRESS
SEED RITES AND FARMING RIGHT
It’s about sowing the seeds of change. On May 25, while others in the country celebrated Buddha Poornima, a small cluster of villages in Chennekothapalli area of Anantapur in Andhra Pradesh celebrated
Molakala Punnami, a traditional and unique seed festival. I grabbed the opportunity of visiting villages like Brahmanapalli and Narasingarayanipalli on the day to try and experience firsthand what the festival was all about.
