QUETTA: The District Administration had finalized the arrangements to organize a 3-day annual historical and cultural festival of Sibi from March 6 to 8 to put the local culture on display, in addition to exotic and rare species of animals.
A high-level meeting headed by Deputy Commissioner Sibi Dr. Khudai Rahim reviewed the preparations for Sibi Mela on Tuesday.
Addressing the meeting, Deputy Commissioner Sibi Dr. Khudai Rahim said that the annual traditional and historical festival would be held with great zeal.
He directed the officers of all relevant departments, particularly the Department of Livestock, Department of Agriculture and Education to complete the preparations for the celebrations of the historic festival and make sure that there was no disturbance in the preparations.
He said that this time, the musical program would be held in the stadium instead of the Jirga Hall so that the public does not face any problems. A large number of people, not only from all over Balochistan but also from other parts of the country, would participate in it, he added.
The Sibi Mela is an attractive opportunity to review the performance in the fields of livestock and agriculture, he added.
The DC said apart from livestock exhibition and sale and purchase, agricultural and industrial exhibitions would also be arranged on the occasion.
