Makar Sankaranti draws people for holy dips in the sacred rivers all over the country. Among the various sacred waters people take a dip, Parasuram Kund on River Lohit in Tezu of Arunachal Pradesh is more popular.
The mythology associated with the Parasuram Kund goes as per Kalika Purana that Parasuram, the great sage washed way the sin of slaying his mother by bathing in the waters of Brahma Kund. Probably that could have earned another name for the sacred waters as 'Parasuram Kund'.
