Answer:
India is a land of villages though urbanization is taking place at a fast pace. Still most of the people in India live in villages. They do not have many means of entertainment and shopping in the village and have to go to the nearby towns for this purpose. But fairs, which are held frequently in villages, provide them a welcome relief.
A fair is also held in my village every year on the day of Baisakhi. The Baisakhi always falls on the 13 day of April every year. It is on this day that the farmers start harvesting their wheat crops in northern India. 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 number of people from nearby villages was making a bee line to the fair. There was a large number of stalls. At many stalls, sweets and men and women with their heads covered, were sitting on be niches and were eating colorful barfi, rasgullas and gulab. Some of them were taking saltish dishes like samosas and pakoras.
Some stalls were selling colorful toys, balloons and balls; there was a great rush at stall selling ladies items like glass bangles, bracelets, necklaces and several other items of artificial jewellery. Some religious minded old ladies preferred to buy clay images of gods and goddess.
In one corner a juggler 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 one great attraction of the fair was the fold dance of Punjab, which was being performed most enthusiastically by young boys for the sheer joy of doing it. And similar was the case with giddha performed by young girls. The fair was like a paradise.
