This year, it is being organised from February 16 to 27 at Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium in Delhi, PMO’s statement said.
It will showcase the rich and diverse heritage of tribes from across the country in over 200 stalls at the venue. Around 1,000 tribal artisans will participate in the exercise.
