Write a composition on 'Pahela Baishakh' that you have celebrated.
PAHELA BAISHAKH
Pahela Baishakh is the first day of the Bangla New Year. People celebrate this day by holding cultural functions and fairs. This day is our national festival.
People irrespective of caste, colour, social status etc. assemble in the fair. They forget all their differences on this day and indulge in pure delight. I went to Ramna Batamul in the Ramna Park, enjoyed the cultural function which was being held.
Various cultural organizations arrange various programmes on this day. Chayanat the leading cultural organization of our country is the main attraction on this day. They begin the function with the song, Esho he Boishakh asho esho. They represent our national culture.
I woke up early in the morning and wearing traditional Bangali dress went to the Batamul by rickshaw.
The famous artistes were singing welcoming the New Year. A large number of people of all ages assembled there. On this occasion a fair was held where various handicrafts were sold. Temporary hotels sold traditional Bangali foods.
This attracted me most. I bought a plate of wet rice and hilsha fish and ate it to my heart's content. Then I went to the fair and bought some handicraft. I came back home at 2'p.m. Again I went to the fair with my friends and enjoyed seeing people of different ages in traditional dresses.
Pahela Baishakh is a tradition of Bangla culture. So people of different creeds and religions assemble together to welcome the day. Different cultural organizations arrange folk songs, jatra boat race and horse race.
The day is indeed a day of great rejoicing and merry making.
