About The Pushkar Cattle Fair

The Pushkar Fair is a celebration of Rajasthan’s animal husbandry traditions. Competitions like Best Milk Producer, Best Horse Breed, and Best-Dressed Camel are among the highlights. Gir cows, known for producing A2 milk, have their own special category, while the traditional Nagaur Bull Competition continues to draw huge crowds.

The fair, which began on October 23 and runs until November 7, has seen massive participation this year, with 3,021 animals registered so far.

Dr Sunil Ghiya, the department’s joint director, said, "We will set up checkpoints on routes being used by animals to come to the fair for livestock trade. All livestock will be registered, checked by veterinary doctors, and tagged. Precautions are necessary as livestock gather and stay here in large numbers, and there is a danger of communicable diseases."

He added that the department is digitising animal records, especially for camels, cows, buffaloes, and horses. Veterinary doctors and officials are available round the clock at the fairgrounds.
