dc.description.sponsorshipIntangible cultural heritage is practices, customs and rituals that are associated with a particular culture and their continuity depends on that society. The transmission of the knowledge, practice, customs and rituals helps in making it a living cultural heritage. Cultural heritage constitutes of both intangible and tangible heritage. Tangible heritage like the buildings, monuments, landscape, artifacts are the outcome of intangible association of the culture and tradition. The beliefs and cultural practice of a society provides an identity to people who are part of it and makes them distinct from the other communities in the world. The intangible heritage is created by communities and they help in transmission. Oral traditions, performing arts, social practice, rituals, fairs and festivals, traditional craftsmanship all are manifestation of intangible cultural heritage and needs to be regarded as Living cultural heritage. Out of them, fairs and festivals play a vital role in conveying and expressing the faith and belief of the religion. In Hinduism, there is a belief of worshipping a physical form of God. Therefore most of the festivals like Navratri, Ganesh Chaturthi, Durga Puja, Diwali (Kali puja), Janmasthami, Gangaur puja, Shivratr, is carried out by practicing idol worship. It is also important to understand that for each festival the form of idol changes according to the geography.en_US
