Women are dancing to the beat of drums and folk songs (siring). "Karma" is a festival of brotherhood and friendship and cultural unity. Tribes worship trees during this festival (as they are a source of livelihood), and they pray to mother nature to keep their farmlands green so that they get a rich harvest. The festival "Karma" has a close link with nature. It is believed that the worship for good germination of grains, increases fertility. Karam Devta is the God of power, youth and youthfulness, is worshipped during the festival. The devotees keep a day-long fast and worship the branches of karam and sal.
