Add as a preferred source on Google

Durga Puja is one of the biggest and the most famous festivals in West Bengal and it is celebrated for 10 days starting from Mahalaya. But usually, people start flocking to the pandals from the sixth till the ninth day. The tenth day marks the immersion of Durga idol in water (visarjan) with grand celebrations and processions.

The pandals in Kolkata have a different theme every year and they are beautifully decorated. Some pandals have a theme based on a social cause to spread awareness such as negative effects of plastic pollution, conservation of urban heritage, water conservation, eye and organ donation, step-wells of Gujarat, crafts of Bengal, Balakot air strike, etc.

In 2019, the most talked about pandal is at Santosh Mitra Square in Central Kolkata, where a 13ft idol of Ma Durga is made of 50kg of gold. The interiors of the pandal have been designed as a Sheesh Mahal while the marquee represents the ISKCON temple at Mayapur.

At night, the brightly lit pandals in hundreds of colours is a scene to behold. The Durga Puja of Kolkata isn't just a festival, it's an emotion that brings together all walks of people to celebrate the festival with grandeur.
