Folk Dances & Songs of Paired State
To promote a sustained and structured cultural connect in the areas of culture, traditions & music under Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat Programme, the folk singers and dancers of the paired state (Rajasthan) sponsored by SPIC MACAY thrilled the cadets with their famous folk dances such as Kalbeliya and Bhavai on 23 Dec 2021. Through introduction, the cadets were made aware of Kalbeliya tribe of Rajasthan. They came to know about their traditional occupation of snake catching. The dance movements and the costumes bearing a close resemblance to those of the serpents mesmerized the audience. The suspenseful Bhavai dance involving the well skilled female dancer balancing many earthen pitchers on her head and dancing simultaneously held the audience spellbound. The artists also captivated the audience by playing famous Rajasthani folk musical instruments - Morchang, Khartal and Alghoza. The event created awareness about the cultural diversity and promoted national integration. It also enabled the cadets to understand and appreciate the varied culture of people across the country.
