Trade Fair 2007, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi
Hi Friends,
At around 1.30 PM, we headed towards Pragati Maidan to see the much awaited Trade Fair. The parking space looked like a body clad with jewels of all colors and sizes. We rushed out of the parking to save ourselves from being choked by the dust.
We collected our tickets from the booth and found a long queues of people waiting desperately to enter into the Fair. We had no choice but to join them. After 15 mintues of wait, we made it to the Entry gate. We were asked to switch off our cellphone while we pass though the security checks.
Finally, we were in. As expected, crowd had penetrated into every bit of space available. Everyone was in a jubilant mood. Men and women, boys and girls, kids and their toys.. the scene was absolutely joyous. Music and dance competitions were being organized at some of the stalls which attracted many onlookers.
We had pre-planned that we would visit the tech booths only. So, sticking to our plans, we enter into the Techological Innovations Booth area. After that, we proceeded to se some more recent gadgets on Display. Next, we moved to see some international art and craft on display. We could feel our legs tiring by now, and we knew our next destination.. any guesses?
Foooood Court !!!!
There we were.. amongst all kinds of flavors. People were engrossed in enjoying the delicacies of various tastes. Spicy, Indian, Continental, Chinese.. you name it and they had it ready to serve you. No doubt, it was teh most crowded area in the whole Trade Fair. I preferred to something light.
By the time we were done with the food, we could hear people saying "Moli aa gayi kya?" The famous girl Moli from the Sa re ga ma pa (I think I got it right!) was the talk of the hour as she was going to perform in the evening in the theatre. As we crawled towards the exit, we enjoyed the lake-side view, the musical laser show, the army band playing orchestra, and ofcourse, the people from all the caste and creeds of India.
At 7 PM, we were ready to step back into our car. This once-in-a-year event got an entry into my Blog and another day of my life passed on smoothly.
QUIZ:
Now, it's the Quiz time folks!!!
Guess Who was with me during my visit to Trade Fair. Options are:
1. My Brother
2. My Family
3. My Neighbors
4. Someone Special
