Meghalaya, the abode of a number of colourful tribes always is known for festive seasons. Tribes both Christians and non Christians have different faiths. They worship different gods and goddess. The Laho dance, the name of an entertainment festival of the Jaintia people makes Meghalaya no less proud which help the north eastern state beckon umpteen number of tourists from the country and abroad in April each year.
Dressed in their traditional attire, the energetic men and women throng the festival venue in the Jaintia Hills district where they participate in the dance---two young man and woman each other holding their arms. There is hardly any use of drum and pipe in this festival. These dance is generally conducted by a cheer leader who recites the ribald couplets to ensure fun and frolics.
