Many of us are aware of the traditional folk theatre called Jatra. It is believed that Jatra originated in Bengal in 15th century because of the Bhakti movement. Jatra is a quintessential part of Bengal's culture. The various offices of the Jatra group in Garanhata come to life again post Rahayatra.
