Many kite owners are excited with the popularity of these different varieties of kites this year. One of the owners of the kite shop mentioned, “Tiranga kites have been people’s all-time favorite, but this time kites with pictures of Modi and Rahul are sweeping the market. Everybody wants to fly the kite which will win.” This is not the case of one or two areas in Delhi but most of the Delhi areas are seen in the same scenario.

This kite fight behind two well-known public figures obviously attracts to the results of the till date kite sales. According to a shopkeeper in the wholesale market for the past 35 years, “We have sold more Modi kites than Rahul kites. Everyone who comes to us is a supporter of a different party. We sell what they ask for. It seems like Modi is more popular among the Delhi folks.

The current situation indicates that politics has taken over the kite bazaar of India. Well, this is not the first time when anything like this has happened. Last year, kites with Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees were one popular trend. Which of the themed kites are you flying this Independence Day? Comment below your opinion on the same.
