The Rajasthan State Cattle Fairs Act, 1963, regulates official cattle fairs across the state of Rajasthan by vesting all management and control in the state government. It applies to cattle buyers, sellers, traders, site occupiers, and event organizers. The law bans competing fairs nearby, imposes taxes on purchased cattle, collects vehicle tolls, and empowers officers to rent sites and maintain sanitation, water supply, and fire safety. This regulation matters because it structures livestock trade, guarantees public order and hygiene, and generates state revenue to fund these essential agricultural gatherings, ensuring safe commercial spaces for local farming communities.
