Dear Diary
I happened to visit a craft mela at Faridabad two days back. You will not believe me when I say it was one of a kind experience. It was like witnessing the crafts of almost all the states of our country under our roof. The visual and verbal stimuli that they used to explain their crafts made the whole mela very lively. It was quite difficult to believe that one country had so many different types of crafts. Most of the stalls also had craftsmen who gave live demos of how various products were made. I was astounded at the skills of these people. At the same time, I felt sorry that most of the time their skills were going unnoticed. For example, while Gujarat state excelled in various mirror work products, the one from Kerala showcased many products made from the leaves of coconut trees.

Dear Diary,
The Crafts Mela at Suraj Kund was much more impressive and grand than what I had imagined.
This year the ‘Theme State’ was Rajasthan. The whole campus was painted with the visuals of
Ranthambore, Chittor, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer. It was Mini India assembled on a few hundred acres of land. All the awarded artisans from different states had set up their workshops and stalls there. Many countries, more particularly Pakistan, Nepal and Afghanistan gave it an international look. Bangles, jewellery decoration pieces, wall-hangings, purses, shoes, sarees, garments and cosmetics found thousands of buyers. Every evening there were cultural shows at the `Chaupar and the tangmanch’. The ‘Food Court’ provided all kinds of delicacies for food-lovers. Basically, it was India in all its colours, tastes and sounds scattered on the Aravalli hills.
