Umiya
Umiya is one of the popular fairs of Gujarat, which is well known by the Kutchi network. The festival is well known to welcome the monsoon and pay gratitude to Lord Indra (Lord of Monsoon).
During the celebrations, which are held for 7 days, the locals pay their respects to the ocean. While most people suppose that the festival is associated with the ocean, the reality is that it's really related to the river. It is determined that this festival was started to specific gratitude toward the River Nar, which flows through Kutch. The river was referred to as the mother river of Kutch and was worshipped as Umiya. The people of Kutch used to have a good time at the festival by taking a tub in the river, redecorating their houses with mango leaves and plant life, and providing prayers to the river.
