Pahela Baishakh
Pahela Baishakh is the biggest traditional festival for us. Bangla New Year is an indispensable part of our own culture, heritage, lifestyle and civilisation. When Pahela Baishakh comes I cannot express how pleased I am! It gives us a feeling of great pleasure.
All classes of people, especially the youths, came out on the roads wearing our traditional dresses to celebrate the day. Many take "panta bhat" with fried hilsa and sing Tagore's "Esho he Baishakh esho esho" welcoming the occasion.
