Answer: Last year I went to the Baishakhi Mela at Ramna. I went there with my classmates. When we entered the fair, it was evening. I was surprised to see the decoration of the fair. The whole area was decorated with colourful lights and festoons. The environment of the fair charmed me a lot. There were stalls of earthen pottery, cosmetics, sweetmeats, bamboo flutes, toys, traditional handicrafts and so on. I also saw some stalls of watered rice and our national fish. Young girls wearing white and red coloured mixed sarees were helping the customers there to buy something. Circus, merry-go-round (Nagordolla), puppet show, magic show etc. were the main attractions of the fair. There were also arrangements of Bangla folk songs like Zaree, Saree, Polligeeti etc. The fair also worked as a market for cottage industries. The artisans, potters and weavers were encouraged by it. The security of the fair was very praiseworthy. A lot of police and volunteers were appointed there. Moving around the fair I along with my friends saw everything. We ate many rare sweetmeats. I felt very pleased going to the fair. There I saw people of all ages and religions. I look upon the fair as a symbol of our national unity.
