Kite makers in Lahore demand early permits for 2027 Basant festival

Representatives of a kite flying association in Lahore have called for early issuance of manufacturing licenses ahead of the 2027 Basant festival. They warned that delays could cause shortages like those experienced this year. The call follows the Punjab government's announcement of festival dates for March 2027. The festival returned this year after a long ban, now regulated by a provincial law.
