Exception occurred HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.kite.trade', port=443): Read timed out.

Why my websocket connect gets disconnected after about 2 hrs with the exception
Exception occurred HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.kite.trade', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=7)
I am getting disconnecting twice in a day with this error. Any suggestions?

Thanks Srijan. If I write code like this and the timed out exception occurs, will it invalidate the ticker object? or will it continue? thanks in advance

def on_ticks(ws, ticks):
     global my_ticks
     my_ticks.extend(ticks)

kws.on_ticks = on_ticks
kws.on_connect = on_connect
kws.on_close = on_close
kws.connect(threaded=True)

while True:
     try:
          do something with the ticks
     except ReadTimeout:
          pass

This won't invalidate the KiteTicker object,it will continue,i.e retry without throwing the ReadTimeout exception.
