Khoonday Ki Niaz" is usually held on from 22 Rajab and after, where people get together for some halwa/puri/channe,naan or tikkia or tikkray (fried biscuit) and Kheer . It is niaz in the name of Imam Jaffer Saadiq (a.s) and many people who hold mannats/vow to God, that if a certain problem is resolved, they will hold " Ki Niaz" while others hold it anyway as part of tradition and invite their friends family and the poor people in the society !
People get together and read Quran, do aamaals etc. Basically its a religious gathering where people have food and make Mannats !
The NIiaz is made in metti keah bartan and those pots are called . Hence, people started calling the koonday.
This niaz is another example of our imams promoting unity b/w different social classes within a society ❤️
