Although Durga puja in the modern era especially by city-rooted clubs is being criticized because of their illegal pressure on the locals for puja donations, still this festival has remained popular because it’s the biggest annual festival for Tripura, West Bengal like states.

On Sunday, the Chatra Bandhu club started the preparations for Durga puja and celebrated the “Khuti Puja”.

Club members told media that their theme is Kailash temple of Illora and the artists are from this state. However, the budget of the Durga puja is not yet decided. 

This year Durga puja will start from October 1st.
