Cattle fairs in Jharkhand are of an immense popularity. People from near and far, from the state as well as from the neighboring states come to these fairs to buy or sell their cattle. The cattle fairs give everyone a reason to rejoice and take a respite from the mundane day to day living. These fairs also help them in their business. Of the cattle fairs in Jharkhand, one which is pretty well known is the Belgada Mela.
The Belgada mela takes place on the day of Baisakhi Purnima. Probably the year in which the Belgada Fair originated was 1880. This is also essentially cattle fair though there are other festivities of a fair that can be enjoyed by all during this time.
The other cattle fairs in Jharkhand are the Chatra mela which is held during the Durga Puja and two other fairs that take place in Chatra as well.
