The hospital’s female staff and visitors were dressed in traditional attire — sarees and salwar-kurtas in shades of green, red, and pink — adding to the festive spirit. Special mehendi (henna) stalls, folk dance performances, Teej songs, and traditional Punjabi games showcasing the region’s rich culture were among the highlights of the event. Guests also enjoyed authentic delicacies such as ghevar, malpua, and thandai, which added a delightful flavor to the celebrations.
