About	Gangasagar Mela is the largest fair celebrated in West Bengal. This fair is held where the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal form a nexus. Hence the name Gangasagar Mela. A dip in the ocean, where the Ganga drains into the sea is considered to be of great religious significance particularly on the Makara Sankranti day. From few days before the fair, number of pilgrims and saints (we call them Sadhu) start gathering in different camps in Kolkata, West Bengal. Here in the picture the group on the right was very interesting to me atleast. They were wearing special attire and singing songs before Saints. After their performance they were getting some money as token of appreciation from Sadhus. Some of the Sadhus though (as one on the leftmost side) offered even more to them like tea and Ganaja.
