Dugari is recognized as oldest shrine in the region. People come here to collect bamboo and offer them in their village shrines of Tejaji on the occasion of Teja Dashmi festival.
Abstract
The collection consists of audio recordings along with related photographs and videos. The project was mainly based on recording 20 hours of the Tejaji Ballad sung by the Mali (gardeners) community of the village Thikarda. But along with Thikarda, nightlong recordings were also done in some 23 other villages of Hadoti and surrounding region for a comparative study.
