Essay on My Village: India is the land of the village. About 80% OF People in India live in villages. I live in a village that stands on the bank of the Devi River. its name is Shikhara it is under the Nagaon block of Jagatsinghpur district.
There is a Radhakrishna temple on the riverbed. A big banyan tree stands by the Radhakrishna temple with steps going down into the river. In summer people sit and sleep here for a long time. The villagers love to celebrate festivals.
They celebrate various types of festivals known as Rajo, Dushera, Kumara Purnima, Kartika Purnima(boat festival), Holi, Dola Purnima, Raksha Purnima, etc. During the Rajo festival, they play Doli and various types of cakes and pans.

Most of the villagers are well-educated and well-behaved people. There is a clubhouse and a library in our village.
