Explanation:
I decided to see the village fair with-my parents. We reached the fair at 12 A.M. It was held at a two miles away from Delhi.
A number of people had come to see the fair. There are many shops in the fair. Some sold ice-creams and some sold fruits chat.
There was a rush of children on the shop of toys and dolls. Many children were enjoyed elephant-ride. Bangle-sellers’ were having brisk business.
A magician was showing his magic. It attracted a large crowd. My father bought some toys for us and my mother bought some bangles. We enjoyed the fair very much.
India is a land of fairs and festivals. They provide us a lot of fun and amusement. The urban people have many sources of attraction and recreation. They can visit the dazzling bazaars, big restaurants and cinema halls. The weekly bazaars provide them the facilities of marketing. The poor villagers lack all such facilities. The bazaars are far off from the villages. The villagers’ life is very hard and lacks all charm. They have no means of recreation. Their secluded life is cut off from the urban modernization.
Many fairs are held every year in the villages. These fairs generally, take place on the occasion of some festival. The Holi fair, the Rakhi-Badhan fair, the Basant fair and the Baisakhi fairs are the chief and common ones. The Baba Haridas Mela is the most prominent one in our area. It is held at village Jharauda Kalan, twice a year.
This year, I had a chance to see the fair. It was held in the interior of the village. There is a big open space all around the Baba’s Samadhi. Thousands of people visited the fair from far and near with their near and dear ones. I saw a great hustle and bustle there. The people had parked their bullock carts, scooters, motorcycles, trucks, tempos and trollies in the exterior of the village. Most of the people had stayed there during the previous night. It was the 6th lunar day of the bright fortnight of the ‘Chaitra’ month. Many temporary shops had been set up there. The fair was in full swing since early morning. All the people took a bath in the ‘Mallah’ (tank). Some ladies got their children’s hair trimmed and floated them in the holy water of the Mallah. After the dip, the people bowed their heads before the samadhi and lit the lamps there. Everyone offered and distributed prasad there. The people took different vows and prayed for the fulfillment of their desires.
I saw a huge crowd heading towards the shops. Everyone was in fine clothes and in cheerful mood. The sweet shops attracted the largest crowd. The people were buying packets of sweets. Some customers were trying to cheat the shopkeepers. They were caught and insulted. The young children were busy in buying toys, toffees and balloons. The rope dancers, jugglers and magicians attracted a huge crowd. The people stood spell bound and enjoyed their feats. The policemen, scouts and volunteers were controlling the crowd and directing the people. The pick-pockets were busy in their own affairs. A pick-pocket snatched a woman’s necklace and ran away. He was caught red handed. He was severely beaten and was handed over to the police. Everyone got alert. Young boys and girls and the newly wedded couples were enjoying a joy ride in the merry-go-round and whirling in the air. The snake charmers were blowing their pipes and were showing the snakes of different colours and sizes to the spectators. There were many water huts in the fair. The bangles and toilet-articles sellers were attracting the maximum number of women. The ladies were buying face
The village fairs prove very useful for the rural folk. They amuse, relax and refresh them. They remove their boredom and make them fit for further work. We can meet our friends and relatives there and know about them.

☆★ Visit To A Village Fair ★☆
Fairs are gathering of people in a particular season on a particular place to celebrate social or religious or national festivals. However, once I visited my ancestral house in a village on the occasion of Chariot festival for the first time. All the villagers thronged there. They were excited to touch the holy rope attached to the beautifully decorated chariot. Hundreds of stalls were set up of necessity and luxury. I found men, women and children buying things. There were earthen pots, pans, pitchers, baskets, toys, dolls in the stalls. Sweetmeat stalls were offering mouth watering items. The children gathered round the toyshops. There was a merry go round in a corner of the fair. A great number of children had a ride on the wooden horses. The main attraction was the circus show. Flower and fruit plants and saplings were selling from the nurseries. I purchases a few of them. And my Sister bought some balloons and toys. We had delicious Panipuri there. We entered a food stall and had some refreshments there. However, I had a great experience about a country fair which was something different from the town shops and markets. We came back to home fully exhausted but with a great happiness.
