Durga Puja Durga Puja is not merely a religious festival but a celebration of Bengali culture, art, and music. The crafting of the idols is a highly respected art form, and every year, families and pandal committees hire skilled artisans from the region, particularly from Kumartuli, a famous potters' colony in Kolkata. These artisans meticulously create the idols using clay from the Ganges river, and the process is rich with symbolism. For example, a small portion of the clay is traditionally taken from the doorstep of a prostitute, symbolizing inclusivity and the idea that even the most marginalized in society have a place in this divine celebration. #durgapuja #pindle #pindleindia
