HELLO, My name is Aditya, I am curentlly pursuing B.tech from Galgotias Universty. Folk songs in India are getting lost nowadays. This is because more people are living in cities instead of villages. Also, modern music like Bollywood songs and Western music are becoming more popular. This means fewer people are interested in listening to traditional folk songs. It's important to do something to save these songs before they disappear completely. So I tried a small initative to show you the real culture of india through Folk song of different states.
