Here is your short paragraph on Parong festival:

This is the major festival of the Tangsas of Arunachal Pradesh. In some places, it is also called ‘Chamtok Mol.’

It occurs in the month of August and lasts for two or three days. Festival is celebrated in every village. On the occasion, the women go to their respective fields with a view to collecting sheaves of paddy.

Before being brought home the paddy bundles should be fanged with the blood of a sacrificed pig before they are brought home and who ever brings the paddy bundles first will get the best harvest during the season and hence each family tries to bring the paddy bundles first.
