Durga Puja: The Colorful & Joyous Celebration!!

​

The festival represents the great victory of Goddess Durga over the Buffalo demon named Mahishasura. It's a six-day long festival observed as Mahalaya, Shashthi, Maha Saptami, Maha Ashtami, Maha Nabami and Vijayadashami. Because of many other constraints, we celebrate this in 3 days, and generally during weekends.

 

The worship of Goddess Durga for the six days of celebrations takes place on a magnificent scale among the people belonging to the state of West Bengal or other eastern part of the country. The huge and artistic pandals, magnificent idols of goddess Durga, people dancing on the beats of Dhaki (drum) and evenings surrounded with the divine tunes of Goddess Durga aarti are the unforgettable features of every Durga Puja celebration.

 

Moreover having a portion of delicious bhog, artistic views of pandals, colorful fireworks and mouthwatering food delights at various food corners held at every nook and corner let the entire city drowned in the colors of joyous Durga Puja celebration!!
