"Durga" is the name of the deity. The mother goddess. "Puja" means prayer/praise/worship/ritual. "Pandal" is the temporary bamboo tent/installation where the idol of Durga is established and worshiped for multiple days before it is submerged in the water at the end. Also, you are right. There is indeed another festival where an idol of a deity is established in a pandal, worshiped and then submerged in water at the end. That one is dedicated to Lord Ganapati aka Lord Ganesha. The festival is known as Ganesh Chaturthi or Ganesh Utsav. Durga Puja is actually part of Navaratri festival, which literally translates to "Nava" (Nine) and "Ratri" (Night). So it is the festival where the divine primordial feminine energy is worshiped over 9 days/nights. And today (24th Oct) is Dussehra aka Vijayadashami, wherein "Dus" or "Dashami" means ten or 10th day. So after 9 days of Navaratri we celebrate the victory of the mother goddess on the 10th day. Hope this clears things a tad bit!
Durga Puja is now a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a matter of pride for the Indians, the Bengalis, to be precise.Although the festival is celebrated all over India (mostly West Bengal, Odisha, Assam ), the epicentre of this celebration is Kolkata ,the capital of WB and one of the metro cities in India.May Ma Durga bless us all 🙏
@@irhdaily: Durga Pujo 'is' celebrated - but mostly by the 'Bengali' community of India (and the Bengali diaspora abroad... even in the US and Canada) - while all people participate... across religions. The period is observed totally differently (and privately) by other communities (who are Hindus) in India and they call it "Navaratra" which lasts for nine days and is an exclusively vegetarian affair. That's not how we celebrate Durga Pujo. Food (even non-vegetarian), culture, and community events are an integral part of this 6 Day festival of Bengalis. It's often customary to eat "Luchi" on the day of "Ashtami", and "Mangsho" (Chevon) on the day of "Navami". Many Pandals also serve a vegetarian "Bhog" (a typical Pujo platter of food) every day around lunchtime during the festivals for the four days in the middle... as the first day is dedicated to adding weapons to the idols, and the last day is for the submersion. Kolkata's Durga Pujo generates an annual revenue of US$ 5 Billion as of 2023. It takes months to construct the structures and the idols and after the festival, everything is dismantled and reconstructed with whole themes the next year. Even in small cities, Pandals having a budget of US$ 5 Million isn't that big a deal, TBH.
Here Bengal refer to West Bengal on that video that is one of the states of India, this is considered as biggest festival for Bengali’s ( whoever speaks in Bengali language, although celebrated throughout the country, Kolkata is capital of West Bengal refer as “city of joy”.
this festival is basically a celebration of divine female power, we celebrate how strong and beautiful women are. Ma Durga represents a perfect feminine power and ideal mother, wife, friend, sister and more and that's why in western and central India we also call her Ma sakti ( mother of power ) 😇 may ma Durga bless you, defiantly India has not just festivals BUT MEGA FESTIVALS
I'm from Kolkata, and Durga Puja is an emotion for us Bengalis. It is a United Nations recognised Heritage Festival and is a grandiose spectacle beyond imagination to behold. Kolkata is a must visit during this time for a lifetime experience. 😊 Next year land at Kolkata on 7th. October and stay till 11th. October to see this festival. However, the immersion carnival is held a few days later to the last day and another spectacle by itself. 😊
Sharodia Durgatsav and Navaratri purely different......you are watching Sharodia Durgatsav which have different Rituals and values...... Bengali and Maithili peoples only celebrates Sharodia Durgatsav..... sorry Assam and Odisha Durga pujas are different
Before British rule Bengal (where people speak Bengali language)was a large state, after 1947 Britishers divided Bengal in two parts. One West Bengal, a state of India and other is Bangladesh, now a country. Kolkata ( Calcutta during British rule) is the biggest city of West Bengal.
Why you are giving the wrong information. Actually it was 1947 when Britishers divided india into two parts one you know republic of india and another is pakistan but pakistan had two part one was west pakistan ( current pakistan) and other was east pakistan (current bangladesh) but west pakistanis only used east pakistan resources and not treated them well. I remember two events one MD. Ali Jinnah declared the there would be only one language that is Urdu. This decision of Jinnah hurt majority of Bengali speaking people of East Pakistan. 2nd in prime minister's election the candidate of East Pakistan won the election but west Pakistanis never wanted a Bengali person to rule over them so Pakistan's army imprisoned the sheikh mujeeb ur rehman the winning candidate. His followers started a freedom movement in East Pakistan. It was 1971 when India entered into this and helped East Bengal with our army to form a new country from east Pakistan to Bangladesh. In 1971 war 93000 soldiers surrendered to Indian army. Then sheikh mujeeb ur rehman became prime minister of bangladesh. For info his daughter sheikh haseena is current pm of bangladesh but rehman was assasinated by x person. And that x person lives a luxury life in Canada. That's why india called canada safe haven for terrorist. Even Bangladesh govt. Doesn't like Canadian govt. We love Canadians but Canadian govt..... I don't hate Canadian govt. But laugh at them. West Bengal and Bangladesh share their boundary. Both are Bengali speaking but do you know why west Bengal is known as West Bengal even after being on the eastern side. The reason I've explained above. Before 1971 Bangladesh was east Pakistan or east Bengal. So remaining part was west bengal which is among 28 states of india. And whole bangal was a very big region. Before 1911 kolkata was capital of india and British east india company started ruling over india from bengal. That time out freedom movement was going on . So 1905 they divided Bengal. But the division was annulled in 1911 and Delhi was announced a new capital of India.
Subho Bijoya to everyone...🎉🎉🎉 for 2023.. Atithi Devo Bhavah, please come to Kolkata during the Durga Pujas!!! You all are welcome. Durga Puja is the one and only festival from S-E Asia to get a UNESCO recognition under intangible heritage-culture sector. Here, in this festival, we worship womanhood, motherhood, peace and spirituality. So good to see you covering this in here- as a Bengali, I feel proud. This is the Indian way, we have regional celebrations- rather each state has its own celebration, it's vast- cnt be listed. And yes, we only hear a lot about India-Pakistan division but Bangladesh was also taken out of us. Bengali people constitute the 3rd largest ethnic group in the world. Ullash!!!
Hi Guys it's Durga Puja here now in KOLKATA ... ITS Festive Time and we send you al the love and best wishes and blessings from Goddess Durga. Durga Pujo is also the largest festival and it's more like a carnival where people go out on the streets and celebrate. It's not thousands of people but millions of people on the streets of BENGAL ( KOLKATA) tht come out and celebrate Durga Puja for 4 days. Durga Puja is also inscribed on the UNESCO List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It's Huge Come down next year and see the Hospitality and love from Bengal.❤❤❤
Puja means Worship :) Durga is the name of the deity/goddess. Durga puja happens twice a year one in spring time another in Fall/Autumn (called Shradhya Durga puja. Shradh means Autumn/Fall season). It's celebrated all over India at the end of Shradh season of Indian calendar over nine-nights (nav-rarti), but in West Bengal it's most prominent as in Bengal/east India region worship of Shakti (loosely female form of divine energy) is traditionally strong.
You guys should react best pandals of this year. And in Bengali there's sentence 'baro mase tero parbon' means in 12 months we have 13 festivals actually more than that . Actually we bengalis we enjoy in every festival over religion. Because rituals and religion is different and person to person but enjoying in festival for everyone. Because during Eid , different pujas and Christmas everyone comes out on the streets and have some fun. We have the highest crowd gathering during yearly festival Of Durga Puja and Christmas. I'm talking about Bengali and state of west Bengal don't know if it's the same or different in other states.
Durga Pooja is celebrated all over the country, but its intensity of celebration varies. Majorly, its celebrated in Bengal. But people of Delhi, U.P, M.P, Kerala also celebrate this sacred occasion. Its celebrated all over the country. That's all!
In all over India it's celebrated as navaratri , they woreship the same goddess but in different way .....but in Kolkata or in the whole west bengal state it's celebrates way more massive and different way ....in these days it's feels like a different world .....if you ever come to a bengali family during durga puja you will know how a real celebration looks like ....❤️❤️ And yes every single pandle is temporary; people started to make the big pandal maximum 3 months before the festival...and every pandal have their own theme ( only the big organizations around west bengal like 4000 ) and after the festival they untied the pandals...and started think new theme for next year's puja ❤️❤️
Durga puja festival is also celebrated in Bangladesh in a colourfull way. There is a city in Bangladesh name Chittagong.in durga puja festival people call it mini Kolkata❤ Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩💖
Hey IRH folks. Just letting yall know there is going to be a Durga Pujo celebration in Burnaby from 27th to 29th October by Utsab at the Shiv Mandir (Bonsor Ave temple). It is open to all. Feel free to go and explore. Love from Surrey.
This some month it's Hindu festival session start, first Ganesha, mahalaxmi, navratri, dhasuura, Diwali and Bhai duj. This all festivals are come countiously 2,3 month are festivals season for Hindus. BTW we celebrate whole yr festivals but this period are so precious ❤
10:35 bengal is in india guys....the video of unesco was talking about west bengal. Indian bengalis are the people who are from the indian state of west bengal. Though Bangladeshis are also regarded as bengalis...I think thats why you got confused. The thing is Bangladesh was part of undivided India, so when India got divided....undivided Bengal was partitioned and the east side became the country bangladesh and the west side became the indian state west bengal.
Durga Pujo and Navaratri are different. We Bengalis don't observe Navarati at all. In fact on the day of "Navami", it's pretty much customary for us to eat Chevon, and Luchi the day before.
❤❤❤🇮🇳We are proud to be an Indian🇮🇳 ❤❤❤I live in city of joy Kolkata ❤❤❤I is my city ❤❤Jay Maa Durga🙏🙏❤❤❤Adya Shakti Mahamaya ❤❤God bless your family...
Bengal was previously a state of India...later bengal was partitioned into west Bengal state and east Bengal (name Bangladesh,a country)..on the basis of religion... indian West Bengal is hindu dominated and Bangladesh is Muslim dominated....but language is same
It's of nine days actually , even in west Bengal it's from Mahalaya the first day of Debi Pakhshya starts , the street festival happens even from Mahalaya now
Recently the durga puja of West Bengal has been declared as World Heritage by UNESCO (fully verified fact). It is really pride of all Indians because our own culture is getting world wide recognition. We, as Indians are very proud of this festival which mainly occurs in Bengal
Showing your video just after our Vasaan (Sent Maa Durga to her home). Its not only a festival It's our emotion, Joy Maa Durga, Aasche bochor abar hobe❤
Durga Puja is celebrated in kolkata at a mammoth scale with great pomp and show that can match the excitement of any big festival in the world. This puja has Bengalees emotions and people wait all round the year for this festival period. This has many facets, from buying and gifting others, starts with mahalaya, tarpan, navaratri, ashtami Anjali, bijoya dashami utsav, meeting elders, preparation and distribution of sweets in homes, and many many more things that connect and identifies every Bengali together.
festival season is here ! ganpati just went by, today is the last and 10th day of navratri/durga puja and further today is dusheera and diwali and Christmas all and more
I hope you come to Kolkata some day during Durga Puja. I tell you, it's an experience like no other. You're sure to love being a part of the festivities. The joy in the air is contagious and you'll love joining in
there are nearly 26 major similar festivals across India like durga puja in Odisha, Ganpati in Mumbai, Biswakarma, Lakmi Puja in Odisha, Krishan in Mathura and so on...
Thank You Guys. Next year, Please come. This is something you cannot feel by watching videos. If you will come, you will feel the real vibes. Love You Guys.
11:00 not india, but Bharat Doddess Durga🕉 is the Supreme Consciousness being/God. Shubh Durga Puja(Happy Durga Puja) to both of you,because God is not yours or our, it's same for every being.
You can also watch the Garba-dance celebration of Navratri (9 nights) Festival during the same time, when Maa Durga Puja festival is celebrated. Maa Durga Puja festival mainly takes place in the state of West Bengal. During the same time, the Garba celebration of Navratri (9 nights) festival is celebrated in the western state of Gujarat in India.
Around West Bengal region it is known as Durga Puja . And on the other regions it is known as Navratri. Nav-9 ratri-nights so it's a 9 day long festival and last four days celebration is very crowded. 10th day we burst/burn Ravan(a demon defeated by lord ram exclusie in ramayana) to commemorate god's Victory over evil. And in hindu culture after death of our relatives we clean up our home with holy water(Ganga river water) and paint our houses. Since ravan was a very learned bramhan so after his death we do so. And in modern days it is known as preparation of another big festival Diwali. Which is celebrated to commemorate lord ram's return to Ayodhya from srilanka with his wife sita and brother laxman after defeating ravan. When lord ram came back residents of ayodhya celebrated his return by lightening diya/candle. Hence in diwali we light diyas and use crackers to celebrate Diwali. Hope you get a concise explanation..
Once upon a time all over the whole world particularly kolkata formerly known as calcutta was one of the 2nd important city after the London over the British reigning time. That's calcutta such a city of joy.
West Bengal is a state of India whose capital is Kolkata. There is most famous in West Bengal. And this festival is celebrated in whole India. And India's next festival is Diwali. Which is in next month. You should see this also.
One of the oldest Religion and onky faith where Female Superpower is worshipped in Such a Large Scale in each and every Hindu Festival. Proud to be a Hindu.
The other festival where enormous statues are made around the same time as Durga Puja is called Ganeshutsav. Here the elephant Lord Ganesh is worshipped. It is primarily the festival of Maharashtra state in western India.
It's a Gujrati festival mostly and Maharashtra and Rajasthan also celebrate mostly. West ☕ 😗 . You guys don't over think that . Please i know you guys from West but don't try to be West.😂
Today is the last day "Durga Puja" or Navratri ( Nine Nights) war with Demon Mahisha Sura, this war eventually won by Godess Durga victory of Good over Evile. Every year Nav ratri is celebrated in all over india as per Hindu Calendar. In city of Kolkata, West Bengal celebrates this Mother Godess Durga festival more enthuziastically bcoz Godess Durga is Bengals States Clan Godess.
The Hindu Goddess Durga is worshipped as one of the key aspects of the "mother goddess" known as Devi. Devi is the primordial goddess or the creator of the universe. She is supreme energy from where all other energy branches. Durga's energy is an aspect of this Devi
You don't have any idea how massive & how diverse this land called India is. In food habits, linguistics, dressings, music, cultural & sports activities etc.
Durga idol, for few times coming with huge hopes and then immersed in water, human too coming in this world spending few years and then certainly getting merged with soil and water. What a genuine similarity indeed.
Kolkatta former Calcutta is the capital of Bengal in Eastern India.You should also cover Dusshera in Mysore. It’s massive. Today is Dusshera in Karnataka and other states.
Mother Goddess is representation of everything that is Feminine. She represents compassion, motherly affection of nurture, patience, inner strength and live giving force in the universe. Our Maa Bharati, Goddess of Bharat (India) represents us, our culture and civilizational spirit as a nation of 10000 years old at the very least.
Bengal doesn't celebrate the festival in the Indian way because in India this is the most beautiful part that every states have their own culture and different vibes. If you go from a particular state to another state then you'll get a felling like you've entered in a new country, where basically the language and culture changes from the previous one. India is diverse and this is the most beautiful thing about it.
@@irhdaily I m from Kolkata....you both r invited to visit here....come once, hope you must be entertained.don't think about food & lodging...i will manage that for you guys as a viewer and friend... Kolkata was the former capital of India till 1911...and now Kolkata the city of joy is the capital of West Bengal ( one of the colourful state of India)
"Tara-Tari chalo" means, "Lets go fast!" Another festival you are referring to may be Ganesh puja. Ganesh Puja celebrates in Mumbai just like we celebrate Durga puja in Kolkata.
Durga Puja is a Kolkata festival in general...other parts of West Bengal don't celebrate it bigger than Kolkata. So basically its not a festival of Bangladesh but only India 🇮🇳 . A Hindu Festival it is. Vande Mataram 🇮🇳
Most of the India celebrate together, they might have different rituals, different name for festival and different reasons to celebrate, but they celebrate together. Like in other parts of India, people celebrate navratri by fasting, or like in Gujrat, people play dandiya(folk dance form), other parts, people perform ramleela(drama for telling the story of lord rama). So basically, during this time of the year, everyone is in festive mood
Guys, “Durga” is the name of the goddess and “Puja” means worship, it applies to all the other gods and goddessess while their “puja” or worship is happening.
Durga Puja is also celebrated in Manitoba,Winnipeg, Canada. There are hindu community who arrange it. You can go there to enjoy it. I am from Kolkata, West Bengal,India. My sister lives in Manitoba,Winnipeg, Canada.
It is celebrated all over India. In state of Bengal it is celebrated in the grandiose form

"Puja" means prayer/praise/worship/ritual.
"Pandal" is the temporary bamboo tent/installation where the idol of Durga is established and worshiped for multiple days before it is submerged in the water at the end.

Durga Pujo and Navaratri are different. We Bengalis don't observe Navarati at all. In fact on the day of "Navami", it's pretty much customary for us to eat Chevon, and Luchi the day before.

Bengal was previously a state of India...later bengal was partitioned into west Bengal state and east Bengal (name Bangladesh,a country)..on the basis of religion... indian West Bengal is hindu dominated and Bangladesh is Muslim dominated....but language is same

Recently the durga puja of West Bengal has been declared as World Heritage by UNESCO (fully verified fact). It is really pride of all Indians because our own culture is getting world wide recognition. We, as Indians are very proud of this festival which mainly occurs in Bengal

Joy Maa Durga, Aasche bochor abar hobe❤
Durga Puja is celebrated in kolkata at a mammoth scale with great pomp and show that can match the excitement of any big festival in the world. This puja has Bengalees emotions and people wait all round the year for this festival period. This has many facets, from buying and gifting others, starts with mahalaya, tarpan, navaratri, ashtami Anjali, bijoya dashami utsav, meeting elders, preparation and distribution of sweets in homes, and many many more things that connect and identifies every Bengali together.
festival season is here ! ganpati just went by, today is the last and 10th day of navratri/durga puja and further today is dusheera and diwali and Christmas all and more
Navaratri(9 nights) are already over dude.
Today is Dashami(10th day), its not included in Navaratri.
yeah but in central india we take 10th day as end of navratri and dusheera @@bijayalaxmisamantaray5
@@talkingdropsYeah, but you can't call it "10th day of Navaratri(9 nights)", isn't?
It won't make any sense.
@@bijayalaxmisamantaray5 ahh idk cultures are diverse, please digest it, because we also got ideols like durga puja and we have to do visarjan too !
I hope you come to Kolkata some day during Durga Puja. I tell you, it's an experience like no other. You're sure to love being a part of the festivities. The joy in the air is contagious and you'll love joining in
The festival sharadostav ( Navaratri) is celebrated all over India but the Durgapuja ia celebrated in West Bengal
there are nearly 26 major similar festivals across India like durga puja in Odisha, Ganpati in Mumbai, Biswakarma, Lakmi Puja in Odisha, Krishan in Mathura and so on...

Taratari Chalo! means Let's go faster, and you've said it really well.
Around West Bengal region it is known as Durga Puja . And on the other regions it is known as Navratri. Nav-9 ratri-nights so it's a 9 day long festival and last four days celebration is very crowded. 10th day we burst/burn Ravan(a demon defeated by lord ram exclusie in ramayana) to commemorate god's Victory over evil. And in hindu culture after death of our relatives we clean up our home with holy water(Ganga river water) and paint our houses. Since ravan was a very learned bramhan so after his death we do so. And in modern days it is known as preparation of another big festival Diwali. Which is celebrated to commemorate lord ram's return to Ayodhya from srilanka with his wife sita and brother laxman after defeating ravan. When lord ram came back residents of ayodhya celebrated his return by lightening diya/candle. Hence in diwali we light diyas and use crackers to celebrate Diwali. Hope you get a concise explanation..
Once upon a time all over the whole world particularly kolkata formerly known as calcutta was one of the 2nd important city after the London over the British reigning time. That's calcutta such a city of joy.
West Bengal government spends 3.5 billion dollars for this festival in West Bengal not out side the state😅 for 4 days 3.5 billion😅
Origen of durgapuja is westbengal , kolkata
Lord Rama defeat Ravan Asura on Vijayadashmi day 21 days later he goes to Ayodhya city for Diwali 🎇🪔
Give a reaction on best top10 pandel of durga puja in 2023.❤😊🙏

West Bengal is a state of India whose capital is Kolkata. There is most famous in West Bengal. And this festival is celebrated in whole India. And India's next festival is Diwali. Which is in next month. You should see this also.
One of the oldest Religion and onky faith where Female Superpower is worshipped in Such a Large Scale in each and every Hindu Festival.
Proud to be a Hindu.
This is emotion of bengal....
Maa durga aschen ....
Maa means mother ...
Durga - goddess,lord, god, .....
The other festival where enormous statues are made around the same time as Durga Puja is called Ganeshutsav. Here the elephant Lord Ganesh is worshipped. It is primarily the festival of Maharashtra state in western India.
I am from kolkata,west bengal,india
Durga puja is the main festival in our state
Navratri is an annual festival in India. Different regions celebrate it differently. It is celebrated as Durga Puja in Bengal region.
What if I say the other way around 🙂.
@@sayanmandal1289 What do u mean? 😓
@@sayanmandal1289Other way?
@@bijayalaxmisamantaray5 see jali na 😂.
It's a Gujrati festival mostly and Maharashtra and Rajasthan also celebrate mostly. West ☕ 😗 .
You guys don't over think that . Please i know you guys from West but don't try to be West.😂
Today is the last day "Durga Puja" or Navratri ( Nine Nights) war with Demon Mahisha Sura, this war eventually won by Godess Durga victory of Good over Evile. Every year Nav ratri is celebrated in all over india as per Hindu Calendar. In city of Kolkata, West Bengal celebrates this Mother Godess Durga festival more enthuziastically bcoz Godess Durga is Bengals States Clan Godess.
Currently we hv 9 days Navratri +1Dashera and hhmmm we r busy till 15 November guyes😂.❤
The Hindu Goddess Durga is worshipped as one of the key aspects of the "mother goddess" known as Devi. Devi is the primordial goddess or the creator of the universe. She is supreme energy from where all other energy branches. Durga's energy is an aspect of this Devi
Happy to see you loved Durga pujo 💖
WEST BENGAL IS IN INDIA 🇮🇳 ❤😂😂😂
You don't have any idea how massive & how diverse this land called India is.
In food habits, linguistics, dressings, music, cultural & sports activities etc.
Ravan dahan (Delhi,North India), Vijayadashmi (South India), dussehra (Mysore), in North India and South India.
Durga idol, for few times coming with huge hopes and then immersed in water, human too coming in this world spending few years and then certainly getting merged with soil and water. What a genuine similarity indeed.
I love you guys really make an effort to learn about Indian Culture.
You guys are the best Love from Toronto🇨🇦
Kolkatta former Calcutta is the capital of Bengal in Eastern India.You should also cover Dusshera in Mysore. It’s massive. Today is Dusshera in Karnataka and other states.
what about the wrong map they are using be respectful towards ur country and make a noice from your creater to use the right map of india 12:29
Mother Goddess is representation of everything that is Feminine. She represents compassion, motherly affection of nurture, patience, inner strength and live giving force in the universe. Our Maa Bharati, Goddess of Bharat (India) represents us, our culture and civilizational spirit as a nation of 10000 years old at the very least.
Thank you for covering us hindu bengali's biggest festival Durga puja. ❤
Bengal doesn't celebrate the festival in the Indian way because in India this is the most beautiful part that every states have their own culture and different vibes. If you go from a particular state to another state then you'll get a felling like you've entered in a new country, where basically the language and culture changes from the previous one.
India is diverse and this is the most beautiful thing about it.
मां विंध्यवासिनी का आशिर्वाद हमेशा बना रहे मन के सच्चे लोगों पर जय माता जी 🙏
The other festival you are talking about is Ganapati Festival’.
From kolkata....❤ ... being a bengali ❤..
Happy durga puja to all of you guys...
Taratari chalo means let's go quickly
Thank you
@@irhdaily I m from Kolkata....you both r invited to visit here....come once, hope you must be entertained.don't think about food & lodging...i will manage that for you guys as a viewer and friend... Kolkata was the former capital of India till 1911...and now Kolkata the city of joy is the capital of West Bengal ( one of the colourful state of India)
I am a Bengali if you want to know more I can help you....And you are whole heartedly wellcome to West Bengal, India...come celebrate with us...❤
You guys learned a lot for the sake of video
"Tara-Tari chalo" means, "Lets go fast!"
Another festival you are referring to may be Ganesh puja. Ganesh Puja celebrates in Mumbai just like we celebrate Durga puja in Kolkata.
My kolkata😊❤😘🔥🇮🇳🙏👏👍
Navratri or durga puja is celebrated all over india and we all celebrate differently bengal and gujrat celebrate it in most joyful ways
Durga Puja is a Kolkata festival in general...other parts of West Bengal don't celebrate it bigger than Kolkata. So basically its not a festival of Bangladesh but only India 🇮🇳 . A Hindu Festival it is.
Vande Mataram 🇮🇳
Most of the India celebrate together, they might have different rituals, different name for festival and different reasons to celebrate, but they celebrate together. Like in other parts of India, people celebrate navratri by fasting, or like in Gujrat, people play dandiya(folk dance form), other parts, people perform ramleela(drama for telling the story of lord rama). So basically, during this time of the year, everyone is in festive mood
You must come to India once time in Durga Puja 🇳🇪🇳🇪🇳🇪
Its Nigerian flag😶
🇮🇳
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

“Durga” is the name of the goddess and “Puja” means worship, it applies to all the other gods and goddessess while their “puja” or worship is happening.
