Gajan is a Hindu festival celebrated mostly in the Indian state of West Bengal.
It is associated with such deities as Shiva, Neel and Dharmathakur.
The word gajan in Bengali comes from the word garjan
or roar that sannyasis (hermits} emit during the festivities
Alternatively, the word gajan is considered a
combination of parts of two words - ga is from the word gram
meaning village and jan is from the word janasadharan meaning
folk. In this sense gajan is a festival of village folk.(source: wikipedia)
