This all bout kollkata maidan. Kolkata maidan book fair.

I from experience can assure you that the Maidan isn't just a ground, it is a ground that Calcutta has its roots in.

Formally named as Groer Math, the creation of the Maidan dates to the 1750s. This land was cleared to make space after the setting up of Fort William by the British. The connect between the military and this 1000-acre lush space is strong even today. The Indian Army maintains the ground as it is a part of the Fort William Army Base. In fact, the name Groer comes from the Bengali word 'Gawr-er' which translates to "fort's ". Hope you all love to read it.
