Picture by Gautam DeyCapital residents who couldn’t attend the famous Poush Mela at Santinekatan in Bengal can look forward to having a feel of it here itself. Majlish, a socio-cultural organisation of Bengali speaking employees of Mecon and Ranchi-based SAIL units, will organise a three-day Poush Mela at Mecon Community Hall from January 11 to 13. Coal town, on the other hand, had its first brush with Poush Mela. While Anil Das and his group will present Baul songs, a 14-member troupe led by Dolan Mahali will perform Santhali dance. In Dhanbad, over 9,000 people visited the fair and enjoyed mouth-watering dishes served by 13 food stalls.
