The themes 'Pashmina','Nomads of J&K' and 'Land of Saffron' has been selected by the Jammu and Kashmir Academy of Art, Culture and Languages (JKAACL).

According to JKAACL, the first tableau would show the process of making Pashmina and the livelihood's link with it.

The theme titled 'Nomads of J&K' would depict the life of nomads of the state like the Bakerwals of Kashmir, Gaddies of Jammu and the Changpas of Ladakh with a backdrop showing nomad shelters in highland pastures, it said.

The third theme, 'The Land of Saffron', as it said, would focussed on the farming activities related with the cultivation of saffron.

Last year, the Jammu and Kashmir tableau showed the traditional 'Bhand Pather', in which folk entertainers perform satirical plays based on Kashmiri folklores and heroes.
