These kites are not just ordinary kites, they are special in that they carry slogans and messages on themes like national integration, communal harmony, gender security, prevention of cancer, alcoholism, smoking, and many social and moral values.
Apart from kite flying, there are many more interesting segments in the carnival. For the gourmets, a treat awaits from Raj Kalesh’s Kerala Food Festival featuring ethnic dishes from Malabar to Kanyakumari.

For the job seekers and students in trivandrum, there will also be educational and job fares.
