The Haryana Pavilion has been awarded the gold medal for the cleanest stall at the 14-day International Trade Fair held at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. The fair awarded medals across various categories, with the Haryana state pavilion emerging victorious in the ‘cleanest stall’ category.
Providing details on the achievement, Pavilion Director Anil Chaudhary stated that the International Trade Fair was successfully concluded under the guidance of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini and the leadership of Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi, Chief Administrator Shyamal Mishra, and Administrator Vinay Pratap Singh.
The 44th International Trade Fair, which ran from November 14 to November 27, saw the Haryana Pavilion become a special center of attraction for visitors. The pavilion showcased Haryanvi culture, ongoing innovations, and glimpses of the state’s development. Following the conclusion of the fair, an award distribution ceremony was held where the Haryana Pavilion won the gold medal for the cleanest stall. Chaudhary expressed gratitude to Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi, Chief Administrator Shyamal Mishra, and Administrator Vinay Pratap Singh for this achievement.
Director Anil Chaudhary highlighted that while many new experiments related to art and culture were conducted at the pavilion, a novel experiment this year was the introduction of an AI ‘Tau’ (a respectful term for an elder).
He further informed that various stalls were set up in the Haryana Pavilion. This included stalls by 11 artisans and self-help groups, while 22 MSMEs (Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises) also set up their stalls, which remained centers of attraction for buyers. The Haryana Pavilion was built on the theme of ‘Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat’ (One India, Best India). The pavilion depicted the Surajkund Mela and Gita Jayanti. Visitors enthusiastically took selfies and photos at the pavilion and got to know Haryana. Director Anil Chaudhary stated that this year’s fair concluded in a very harmonious manner.
