Dubai - Nadeem Shad Latest Nauchandi Mela Meerut Mushaira 2016 Sarvat Chaudhary

About Nauchandi Mela - Significantly, the mela is a rare symbol of communal harmony with hindu and Muslim shrines – Naauchandi temple and the dargah (shrine) of Muslim saint, Bala Mian – lying close by. Visitors pay obeisance at both the shrines irrespective of the religion they belong to. The fair has its own history and numerous legends and stories are woven around it. According to one belief, Mandodari, Ravan’s (demon king of Lanka in the epic Ramayana) wife, was born in a devil’s house in Meerut. She was, however, a great devotee of goddess Chandi and she had a temple erected in her honour. A religious festival was held to celebrate this occasion. Since then the fair has been held every year. As the legend of the dargah goes, Syed Salar Masood Ghazi was a commander in the army of Mahmood of ghazni who invaded India in 1017 AD and proved his mettle in the fight against the local king. During the course of a battle, he lost one of his fingers. Syed Salar subsequently denounced violence, became an ascetic and took the name of Bala Mian. The present dargah was built in his memory in 1194 AD by Qutub-ud-din Aibak, at the spot where his cut finger had fallen during the battle.
