The carnival, being projected as the first-of-its-kind, which was scheduled to be held in the national capital from April 29 till May 2, will now take place in winter. Exact dates are yet to be finalised, a senior official of the Tribal Affairs Ministry said.
"The National Tribal Carnival, aimed at promoting tribal life and culture, has been postponed due to excessive heat conditions prevailing in the national capital. As the carnival will be day-long event, people participating in the event will find it tough due to hot weather conditions," the official said.
Activities like displaying documented traditional socio-culture aspects, collection of art/artifacts, cultural performances, demonstration of skills like sports, paintings, traditional healing practices etc will be part of the event.
