If it was carried away and drowned, the event was regarded as propitious, the sacrifice having been accepted. If it crossed the river and reached the other bank, that also was favourable as it was believed that all the sins of the town were transferred to the other side of the river.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e4e3c0f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"e4e3c0f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f38ee8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4f38ee8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">History of Minjar Fair in Himachal Pradesh:<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2085fd0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2085fd0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c44c9b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c44c9b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Chamba Town in Himachal Pradesh has gained eminence because of this fair. The River Ravi used to flow between the Champawati Temple and Hari Rai Temple. So, the people who visited any one of these two temples had to cross the river Ravi to go to the other. So, the Raja of Himachal Pradesh asked a saint to make Hari Rai Temple accessible to everyone. The saint, in turn, ordered the Raja and his subjects to assemble at the Champawati Temple. There a yagna or fire sacrifice was conducted for seven days. Next, the Brahmins invited from Benaras prepared a cord of various colors known as Minjar. The traditional culture alive despite the modern influences in Chamba and this is a great achievement, the credit for which goes to various fairs and festivals celebrated in the entire state.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ef15c34 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ef15c34\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-807f53e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"807f53e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Date of Chamba Minjar Mela 2026<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0d5d27 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d0d5d27\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46231d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"46231d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-start=\"63\" data-end=\"423\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The famous <strong data-start=\"74\" data-end=\"131\">International Minjar Fair of Chamba, Himachal Pradesh<\/strong> will be celebrated from <strong data-start=\"156\" data-end=\"189\">26 July 2026 to 2 August 2026<\/strong>.
