To uphold the tradition of Pongal (4-day harvest festival in Tamil Nadu)
and Makara Sankranti (winter harvest festival celebrated throughout
India), the staff and students of ICAT, Chennai held a celebration on 13
January, 2015. The celebration was held in a traditional style with
staff and students cooking sweet pongal in a clay pot using wood fire
and decorating the place with rangoli. The traditional games that are
