A fair is held in my village every
year on the day of Baisakhi. The Baisakhi always falls on the thirteenth day of
April every year. It is on this day that the farmers start harvesting their
crops. Hence the day is celebrated with great joy with only little variations
from, village to village. I went to see the Baisakhi fair held in my village
last year. It covered quite a vast area outside the village.
A very large numbers of people
from nearby villages were making a bee-line to the fair. There were a large
number of stalls. At many stalls, sweets and other eatables were available in
large quantities. They were taking their choice able foods from the stalls.
Different stalls were collecting
and selling different types of items. Some stalls were selling colourful toys,
balloons and balls. There was a great rush at stalls selling ladies’ items like
glass bangles, bracelets, necklaces, nail-polishes, lipsticks and several other
items of artificial jeweler.
In one corner, a magician was
showing his tricks. And in another corner a snake-charmer was singing with his
pipe in front of a Cobra who had its hood raised while a large crowd of people
stood around.
However, the fair was really
enjoyable and it gave me much pleasure and from it I collected much practical
knowledge.
