Gajan is a special folk festival, celebrated for bidding good-bye to the passing year in West Bengal, India. It is believed that the celebration leads to prosperity in the coming year (Bengali Calendar), wiping out all the sufferings and pains of the current year. Participants of this festival are known as “sannyasi” (monk). The word Gajan in Bengali comes from the word “garjan” or roar. Gajan is actually linked to persons who are related to agricultural community, directly or indirectly. They pray for the rains and better harvest. Most parts of this festival are celebrated on the midnight.
