Every year, on the occasion of' Kartik Poornima' a big fair is held here and devotees in lakhs take dips in the holy river Ganga. Locally, the main attraction among the Ghats (bathing places) is the Brij Ghat where countless devotees take holy dip in the river. A month long fair, in the month of Kartik, has its own distinctive importance in the entire northern part of the country. The religious importance of Garh Mukteshwar is also based on the fact that people wishing to attain 'Moksha' endure 'Kalpvas' throughout the month of Kartik, the same way as is observed at Prayag, Hardwar, Ujjain etc. in the month of'Magha' (January / February).

The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and socio-economic characteristics village-wise and town-wise of the district alongwith the status of availability of civic amenities, infrastructural facilities, etc. 2. The scope of the DCHB was initially confined to a few Census Tables and Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town within the district. Thereafter, at successive censuses, its scope and coverage has been enlarged. The DCHB published at the 1961 census provided a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory including PCA. The 1971 census-DCHB series was in three parts: Part-A related to village and town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCA and amenity data in respect of villages. The 1981 census DCBH was in two parts: Part-A contained village and town directory and Part-B the PCA of village and town including the SCs and STs PCA up to tahsil/town levels. New features a10ngwith restructuring of the formats of village and town directory were added into it.
