One may wonder why these fairs are to be held or why one should write about this event. The answer lies in the following verse
कवि:  करोति काव्यानि रसं जानाति पंडित:  |
तरु: सृजति पुष्पाणि मरुद्वहती सौरभं   ||
{The poet writes the poem, the wise man enjoys his (poet's) efforts.
The plant produces flowers. Wind carries the fragrance.}
