This
Durgapuja is one of the oldest in Asansol
& is known to be the puja of Moloy
Ghatak, the local TMC leader. The mandap of
this 66 years Durgapuja has been inspired by
a temple of the southern India. Although a
temporary mandap is erected, the inner side
of the mandap is an actual nat-mandir.
"We believe in restoring our tradition
& don't decorate the nat-mandir which
happens to be the permanent mandap of Ma
Durga" informed Debasish Ghatak, the
local councillor.
The debi pratima is built in traditional
ekchala style. The puja committee also
organises Bijoya samalani at the Asansol
Rabindra Bhawan.
