The much-awaited annual Adivasi Mela has shifted to a new venue at Exhibition Ground this year instead of Adivasi ground at Unit-1. The unique exhibition is more popular for its ethnic ambiance created by people from different tribal communities of the state, who give a glimpse of their lifestyle and culture.
“The earlier venue was better because there were so many big trees in the ground, giving a feel of a forest and the space was also not a flat ground and there were cuts and curves so that one could feel like roaming in a tribal village. But here thought they constructed similar houses but the same unperturbed feeling is missing,” said Swasti Dhal Samanta, a homemaker.Residents of the city eagerly wait for the fair where tribals from different parts of the state bring a wide variety of natural products ranging from exotic spices to herbs, cereals, ayurvedic medicines, arts and crafts and household utilities. Chief minister Naveen Patnaik will inaugurate the fair on Friday.People of different primitive tribal communities construct model houses, paddy fields, gardens, backyards exhibiting their life style, process of cultivation, food, dress and cultural practices in a makeshift village. Nearly 150 stalls will be put up in the fair, of which about 21 stalls will be put by the project areas of integrated tribal development agencies of the state government, NGOs and a number of self-help groups.
The tribal food court offering mouth-watering delicacies of different tribal communities has also been a major crowd puller to the fair. Special delicacies like cakes, mutton-mudhi, chicken pitha and beverages will be served in the fair. Besides, tribal dance and music will also be presented by different troupes every evening.
