Durga Puja is one of the most-awaited festivals in India, and holds great relevance in West Bengal and parts of North-East India. It is celebrated to mark the victory of Goddess Durga over Mahishasura and is hailed as a celebration of female power (Shakti). This festival culminates on Dussehra (Vijaydashami) with Durga visarjan. From concept pandals to traditional ones, Kolkata had a lot to offer this year during Pujo celebrations.
