Pohela Boishakh Celebration
The first day of Bangla year is called Pahela Baishakh. We celebrate this day to mark the
beginning of the 1st day of Bangla New Year. The day is celebrated with traditional festivities
across the country. The rural people arrange Baishakhi Mela on this day. Shopkeepers open
halkhata and offer sweets to their customers and clients. The day has a special attraction for the
town people. They rise early in the morning. They put on their best dress that is payjama and
panjabi. They take panta rice with dried pepper and a slice of fried Hilsha fish. In the town
different organizations arrange meeting, seminar, symposium, discussion. Different cultural
organizations arrange various kinds of cultural functions. Pahela Baishakh has a great
significance. It reflects our age old tradition and culture. It bears the testimony to the fact that we
have a culture of our own. It is the manifestation of our cultural heritage.
