It is basically research works that involve a lot of information and data gathering. We will try to x-ray the historical background of these communities, the history of the festivals, the the process and its significants. The strategy to be adopted for task delivery will be to visit the Town Unions and Royal Institutions in these communities for interviews and partnerships. The challenges we are addressing are 1. Most of these festivals are not properly documented, hence this work will serve as a guide for future studies and policy formulations. 2.
