RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

BHABHUA---------------------------On the auspicious occasion of Krishna Janmashtami on Saturday, Devhalia market under Ramgarh police station area became completely devotional. Like every year, this year also a three-day grand fair and tableaux have been organized here. As soon as the fair started, a crowd of devotees from all over the area gathered. The atmosphere echoed with the chants of "Jai Shri Krishna" at various places and the whole area was drenched in religious enthusiasm and excitement.

Devotees expressed their faith by seeing the tableaux of Lord Krishna. From children to the elderly, everyone seemed overwhelmed by seeing the beautiful decoration of the tableaux. Women and girls wore traditional costumes and further enhanced the beauty of the festival. The enthusiasm of the small children who came to the fair was worth seeing. They were enjoying the swings, sweets and toys to the fullest. At the same time, elderly devotees were experiencing spiritual happiness by immersing themselves in bhajans and kirtans.

Devotees said that this fair of Janmashtami is not just a religious event but also a symbol of social and cultural unity, where people of all classes and ages gather together and enjoy the festival.

In view of the crowd, the administration has also made the security arrangements completely foolproof. Sub-divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Mohania, Police Zone Inspector Mohania and Police Station Head Ramgarh jointly inspected the fair area. The officials directed to coordinate with the fair committee and pay special attention to crowd management, traffic control and parking arrangements. Also, devotees were appealed to be a part of the program in a peaceful and cooperative manner.

This three-day fair is counted among the biggest religious and cultural traditions of the region. People not only enjoy worship and tableaux but also buy essential goods for the family from the temporary market set up here. This is the reason why this festival of Janmashtami holds special importance in the lives of the local people.

This fair of Devhaliya Bazaar on Krishna Janmashtami has become a wonderful confluence of faith, joy and social harmony, in which devotees are participating with full dedication and devotion.
