One of the tasks set before him by a resolution of the Governor-General-in-Council in 1807 was "to examine with as much accuracy as local circumstances will admit": "an account of the various kinds and amount of goods manufactured ih each district ...... the ability of the country to produce the raw materials used in them ..... how the necessary capital is procured, the situation of the artists and manufacturers, the mode of providing their goods ...... commerce: the quantity of goods exported and imported in each district; the manner of conducting sales, especially at fairs and markets." That he discharged his duty very thoroughly will appear from his statistical ac­ counts of Mysore and the northern districts of Bengal and Bihar. The great Revenue Surveys of the middle of the nineteenth century made no attempt in this direction, and accounts of fairs and festivals in districts were neglected until W. W. Hunter took up the compilation of statistical accounts again in the last quarter of last century. For the purpose of notifying holidays in the East India Com­ pany's offices the Board in Calcutta had since 1799 been in the habit of "procuring an accurate Bengalee almanac properly authenticated by brahmanical astronomy" from the Nabadwip Court (letter from Secretary of Board to Collector of Nadiya, 5 July, 1799, No. 8217, W. W. Hunter's Unpublished Bengalee MSS Records). Sati~ Chandra Vidya­ bhusan in his History of Indian Logic wrote that "almanacs were prepared by the Pundit Samaj of Nabadwip which were supplied to the Nawab's Court of Murshidabad as well as to the East India Company, the Supreme Court, etc. ..... the Nabadwip Panjika under the imprimatur of Nabadwipadhipateranugya was accepted by all the landlords of Bengal". This Nabadwip Panjika which remained the standard almanac for Bengal conti­ nued in use throughout the first half of the nineteenth century and each issue contained a list of important fairs and festivals in every district. A valuable almanac was that pub­ lished by the Vernacular Literature Committee's Almanac published in 1855-6 (1262 B. S.). It gave an account of 309 famous fairs of Bengal in its second part. The Gupta Press Panjika or almanac which virtually replaced Nabadwip Panjika made its first appearance in 1869 and continued to publish a useful list of important fairs and festivals in the country. But this list was by no means exhaustive nor were W. W. Hunter's which he published with each Statistical Account. Meanwhile native crafts, industries and objects of artistry decayed rapidly and thoroughly as a result of the East India Company's policy of extinguishing them, and official interest in fairs and festivals declined, although these occasions, divested of much of. their glory; still continued to attract livestock, grain, merchandise and handicrafts from far and near. The Imperia] Gazetteers published between 1880 and 1910 gave a minor place to these important seasonal markets of temporary inland ports. Even the District Gazetteers, which still are the fullest and most compact accounts of districts, make but casual ,mention of fairs and festivals in the country and attach little economic importance to them. For, indeed, the importance of fairs and festivals - as the meeting ground of livestock and agricultural commodities, of many religions and many cultures, crafts and motifs from far and near, of ideas and design, workmanship, excellence and finish, of tools and appliances, of trends of the future and vanishing practices of the past, of adapta­ bility and local variation, of skill and imagination - declined with the punitive export policy of the East India Company and the unrestricted import of machine-made goods, so much so that at the close of the last century ,fairs and festivals were reduced to a matter of concern only for the Public Health Department. They were no longer regarded 11 as important centres of trade and commerce, but were now from the Government point of view merely a collection of human beings among whom epidemics were to be prevented from breaking out. Fairs and festivals continued to be a matter of\ law and order and the Police Department and the District Board continued to maintain full lists of them in their local offices, a source which has so far remained unquarried. Following the census operations of West Bengal in 1951, a slim volume, con­ taining a list of fairs and festivals arranged according to districts and their Police Stations, was, brought out as part of the West Bengal scheme of Census Publications. This list was mainly made up of information supplied by District Boards and Superintendents of Police 'of districts. The two lists were collated to make up a comprehensive list containing seve- ral columns: the name of the village arranged under its district and Police Station, with its Jurisdiction List number, the name of the festival or fair by which it is commonly known in the locality, the English month of the year in which it is held, the duration of the festival or fair, and finally the number of persons attending it. Although merely a list, and not quite complete at that, this volume attracted attention and received the apprecia­ tion both of scholars and the general public.
