Meena Bazaar
Meenā Bāzār or Mina Bazaar (, (ヒンディー語:मीना बाज़ार)) is a special bazaar to sell items to raise money for charity and non-profit organizations. It also refers to a number of modern-day shopping centres and retail stores.
==In the Mughal era==
During the Mughal era Meena Bazaars, also known as ''Kuhs Ruz'' ("Day of Joy") were exclusively held for women, while the emperor and a few princes were the only males present.〔Mukherjee, Soma (2001). p. 80.〕〔Eraly, Abraham (2007). ''(The Mughal World: Life in India's Last Golden Age )''. Penguin Books India. ISBN 0143102621. p. 70.〕
The Bazaars took 5 to 8 days during the Norouz (New Year) festival. Emperor Humayun was the first to organize them, but Akbar and his successors made them more elaborate. The fair was closed for the public, while the women of the harem, Rajput ladies and the wives and daughters of the noblemen in the court, set up their own stalls to sell cloth, jewellery, handicrafts etc. Only the emperor, princes and some nobles were allowed to enter the bazaar to purchase the goods, which were sold at high prices. The earnings were given for charity.〔Mukherjee, Soma (2001). pp. 102-103.〕
