So, todays Ashtami isnt it? -Yes today is Ashtami, but unlike a few other years this years Shondhi Pujo was in the morning. Thats why after Aaroti in the evening Nabami is here. So now as the Aaroti is over, its Nabami already. This year Ashtami and Nabami are on the same day. Youve obviously been pandal hopping havent you? -I came to Joynogor because it is my Desher Bari (ancestral home) and here we celebrate Durga Puja together with my entire family. I came here on Saptami, so yes Choturti and Shoshti Ive been pandal hopping. Oh thats nice. How many pandals would you have visited approximately? -More than 15 I think. We went quite far. And which were your favourites? -Mudiala and Badamtala You must look forward to the Pujas then, right? -Obviously. (smiles) What is it that you like most about this time of the year? -Every single relative of mine comes to Joynogor and its like a family reunion. And even in general, there is no distinction between rich and poor. Literate or illiterate, everyone enjoys their heart out during the Pujas. Ashmita Bhattacharya, Class 9, La Martiniere for Girls.
