India Jonbeel Festival
A Tiwa tribal woman arranges fish for barter during the Jonbeel festival in the Morigaon district of Assam, about 60 km from Guwahati, in northeast India, on January 23, 2026. Hundreds of Indian tribal communities like the Tiwa, Karbi, Khasi, and Jaintia gather from their native encampments in the nearby hills to take part in the festival to exchange goods through an ancient barter system rather than money.
