A three-day fair opened on Saturday at East Majhipara village under Kalkini upazila of Madaripur, paternal house of noted litterateur of the sub-continent poet Sunil Kumar Ganguly. Known as Sunil Mela, the fair will conclude today. A fan of the poet, Abdur Razzaque Howlader arranged the fair that witnessed a huge crowd on the first day. The organisers, shop owners and visitors, however, expressed indignation at poor communication system and absence of power connection. Besides colourful stalls, fans and different organisations are holding discussion on the poet, songs, drama and poetry recitation programmes. Baul and other folk songs started from Saturday night.
