Answer: (C) Kongali Bihu
Kongali Bihu, also known as Kati Bihu, is an Assamese harvest festival celebrated in autumn (October-November). Unlike Rongali Bihu (spring) and Magh Bihu (winter), Kongali Bihu is a more somber occasion. It marks a lean period in the agricultural cycle, before the new harvest. Celebrations are typically simple, involving lighting lamps in paddy fields and offering prayers for a bountiful harvest. It symbolizes a time of scarcity and anticipation.
