| FESTIVALS OF MAHARASHTRA A land as rich in culture as Maharashtra, with sites as diverse as the delicately carved and painted Ajanta-Ellora caves to the magnificent forts of Murud-Janjira and Raigad, has a wonderful history in literature, the arts and crafts. A Government of Maharashtra (MTDC) initiative, cultural festivals are held, as a tribute to the artists of yore, to celebrate the greatness of a site or simply a religious occasion. And they are done with aplomb and gaiety. The festivals usually showcase the place and the event in an enchanting manner with world-renowned artistes displaying their talents. |
