Dances of Jammu Province- Chowki Naach

Dances of Jammu Province- Chowki Naach


The dance in Rajouri is similar to that of Dogri folk dance "FUMMANIYAN". 

People from all communities perform this dance jointly, which shows a nice picture of communal harmony and natural integration.

This dance is purely a religious dance in the honor of the Gram-Devta or Kul-Devta. 

People assemble in the temple or place or worship on a particular date and perform Jaatar with iron chains (Saunglan) in their hands and devotional songs are also accompanied with it.
