Nalagarh, Sourabh Jaiswal: Thousands of devotees are flocking to the Lohri fair organised at the historic Peersthan in Nalagarh too.

According to the belief, in this fair, families and especially women pray for the well-being of their children and family and when their wish is fulfilled, they come here again and visit the temple with full rituals.
