Bihu refers to three distinct festivalsâBohag Bihu, Kati Bihu, and Magh Bihuâcelebrated in the Indian state of Assam, each marking an important phase in the farming cycle. Bohag Bihu and Magh Bihu are joyous festivals that involve music, dance, and feasting because they celebrate the onset of spring and the end of the harvest, respectively. Kati Bihu is a more somber occasion when families offer prayers for a bountiful harvest.
