Here in the West Kameng area, the inaugural three-day Eaglenest Butterfly Festival came to an end on Monday. The first Eaglenest Butterfly Festival 2024 began in Doimara, Arunachal Pradesh’s West Kameng district, and will last for more than three days. It is a celebration of nature’s colorful beauties.
