On the concluding day of Saras Mela, more than 10,000 persons swarmed to the fair organised at Government College for Women by the District Rural Development Agency in collaboration with the Central government.
Additional Deputy Commissioner Pradeep Aggarwal said the total sales figure had touched Rs 1.5 crore. The 11-day mela received more than 2 lakh visitors from March 11 to 21.
Some of the visitors who could not visit earlier made sure that they did not miss out the colours and sights of kaleidoscope of India’s culture. Robina Kaur, who had not been to the fair so far, said she had heard from her neighbours that intereseting artifacts were on display, but she did not get time. “I made sure that I visited the fair before it was over,” she said.
