Abstract
This research paper explores the concept of local colour which refers to the unique cultural practices, traditions, and customs of a particular region that distinguish it from other regions. The objective of this paper is to explore Indian philosophy and socio-cultural ethics through Haryanvi folklore, where an ideal society is imagined as an ordinary lifestyle. It highlights a ‘utopian' vision through the importance of the local colour of Haryana and other regions to ensure that our cultural heritage is preserved for future generations. Moreover, its focus is on Pandit Lakhmi Chand's use of local colour in a fictional presentation that reflects the customs, traditions, and beliefs and their preservation for generations for the people of Haryana. Through this examination, the paper offers insight into how local colour can enrich and enliven literature and how it can be used to reflect and celebrate the diversity of the human experience.
