.
Apart from Kot area, the same situation prevails in Raipur and Khadiya areas of the city. Because Raipur area has the biggest kite market of the city. Due to this, there is a huge crowd of kite flyers here. For the last few years, landlords in these areas have also been renting out their rooftops for kite flying.

All facilities are provided with terraces On this occasion, we talked to Ajay Modi, owner of Ajay Modi Tours and Travels. He told that in Pol area, Uttarayan is also called kite war. The rooftops around this area are close to each other, so it is a lot of fun to fly, cut and loot kites. The atmosphere here in the evening is even more amazing than Diwali.

Apart from 20 kites and strings, guests are given everything from breakfast and food. A room for children is also available. Apart from this, chairs, umbrellas, water and mattresses and adequate means of entertainment are also available on the terraces.
If the ceiling is high then the fare is up to Rs 10 thousand.
The higher the ceiling, the higher the rent Ajay Modi further said that if the ceiling is not very high then it can be found at a rent of Rs 5,000 per day. If the ceiling is high then the fare is up to Rs 10 thousand. Apart from this we also ensure that the guests are well entertained and leave with good memories.
