The history behind Pushkar mela
It is believed that Lord Brahma, the creator of the world, performed a Yagya in Pushkar for 5 days from Ekadashi to the full moon of Kartik month. During this, 33 crore deities were also present on the earth. For this reason, five days from the Ekadashi of Kartik month to full moon in Pushkar have special significance. It is said that this month all the gods reside in Pushkar. Due to these beliefs, the Pushkar fair is organized. In olden times, devotees used to bring animals along with them due to a lack of resources. He gradually became recognized as an animal fair.
