country of sub continental dimensions. It is an ancient
civilization and an inheritor to a rich and diverse cultural
tradition. The Fairs and Festivals celebrated across the length
and breadth of the land present a fascinating pageant and
showcase the resplendence of its arts and crafts tradition. Some
festivals are of religious nature, others are linked with the
lives of the people, change of seasons and harvesting.
There are fairs which in past played an important role in the
commercial life of the people and continue to be celebrated with
great gusto.
