Since Folklore, explain the ‘system’ that is being followed in every aspect of life, the documentation of Multifacet Folklore tries to trace out its process. The globalization reduced the world to a ‘global village’. In this process, a ‘universal culture’ whether directly or indirectly, becomes a part of ‘native life’. In the name of universal culture, the ruling class invades and influences people. In this complex milieu, whether the native culture has any role to play in the contemporary life? Is there any culture that can be conceptualized as ‘ native culture’? If so, what are its structure, context and function? How to identify it? These are some of the questions to be answered. In this background, RRCF has envisaged the Documentation of Multifacet Folklore Survey. This, survey focused light on finding out the ‘system’ that a group is following in every aspect of the life. These systems reveal how firmly the roots were set and perpetuated from the past.
