Date: 9th Nov 2012
 
13th indigenous extravaganza, better known as Swadeshi Mela.
The week-long fair, which began from November 2, is being put together by the Swadeshi Jagran Trust.

 Me (Evewin Lakra ) Standing in front Of
the Picture Of Legendary Birsa Munda(1875–1900)
was a tribal leader and a folk hero,
belonging to the Munda tribe
who was behind the Millenarian movement
that rose in the tribal belt of modern day
Bihar, and Jharkhand during the British raj,
in the late 19th century making him
an important figure in the history
of the Indian independence movement.
Long Live The Brave Hero ! :)

KHADI is not just a cloth, it is a whole movement started by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi . Mahatma Gandhi began promoting the spinning of khadi for rural self-employment and self-reliance  in 1920s .India thus making khadi an integral part and icon of the Swadeshi movement.

  "I believe that where there is pure and active love for the poor there is God also. I see God in every thread that I draw on the spinning wheel."
  ~ Mahatma Gandhi ((Young India,20-5-1926)

 
 A Sweet Little  Replica Of Hut .Huts are used as temporary shelter by people. Huts are quickly built of readily available materials such as ice, stone, grass, palm leaves, branches and/or mud and exist in practically all nomadic cultures.

 “Many who build castles in the air cannot build a hut on earth”
      ~ German Proverb.
