In Vinayi Triveni Rural Municipality of East Nawalparasi, Dasain was bid farewell by Sarai dance.
In the ancient times, after winning the war, the warriors danced this dance in the Shakti Peeths of the goddess happily.
The community who migrated from Arghakhanchi, Gulmi district has been continuing this dance. According to Khadag Bahadur Rana Magar of Binayi Triveni-2, who has been teaching Sarai dance to the youth for the past 60 years, he said that the problem is that the youth have gone abroad and there is no new generation to learn the dance. Now there are only 4 new young people who dance this dance in the district.
Rajendra Timilsina, chairman of the Dandajor Fair Management and Culture Protection Committee, said that he emphasized on the preservation of the dance, which is becoming endangered, while attracting the youth to the tradition.
