br Tuesday, December 21 is a day of great events, as it marks the Winter Solstice. Also known as December solstice, hiemal solstice or hibernal solstice, the event takes place when one of the Earth’s pole is tilted away from the sun at its maximum distance. Apparently, this causes the day to have the shortest period of daylight due to being away from the sun, with the longest night of the year. This day is marked once every year on either December 21 or 22.br br हिमालय (Himalaya) की तरफ से आने वाली बर्फीली हवाओं के कारण इस समय पूरे देश में कड़ाके की ठंड पड़ रही है। सर्दियों के मौसम ने अपना सितम दिखाना शुरू कर दिया है.
