Bhagalpur. Shravani Mela is not just a fair, but it also provides a huge employment opportunity. It has a business of not crores but billions.

Shravani A
Yearly income in two months of business
The fair is held for two months in Sawan and Bhadon. In these two months, people earn so much that they can survive the whole year. Local businessman Ajit Yadav says, I have been doing business here for about 30 years. I have gained a lot of experience of this fair. Lakhs of devotees and pilgrims reach here in two months. The counting is done in Shravani fair but it is not done in Bhadrapad month. If we count the devotees going on foot and by car, then their number can reach crores. In such a situation, now you can guess that if a person buys goods worth ₹ 100, then how much business would be done.
Record business of Kanwad and saffron clothes
The highest business in Shravani fair is of Kanwar and boxes. Along with this, saffron coloured towels, shirts, half pants are sold the most. If the government sets up factories of all these here, employment will increase further. Now Kanwariyas come here throughout the year and this also gives a good profit to the shopkeepers.
Fair of Kanwadis throughout the year
This time many different things will be seen in Shravani fair. Along with this there will be many new facilities. Earlier Kanwariyas did not get so many facilities. Kanwariyas did not come in such large numbers, but now this fair has become grand due to the arrangements made by the government.
