Folk Songs on TV Channels
Folk songs are integral part of Bengali culture. They contain tradition, values, philosophy, norms and mythical elements which are common to the mass people. They also successfully portray basic human feelings and emotions. Programmes on folk song will not only entertain us but also will help us form our cultural identity. Therefore, I think, there should be more programmes on folk song on the television.
