Durgadi Festival

The Durgadi Festival, also known as Durga Puja, is a significant Hindu celebration primarily observed in India, particularly in West Bengal. It honors the goddess Durga, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. Traditionally, it involves elaborate decorations, rituals, dance, and music, culminating in the immersion of idols in water. The festival typically occurs in late September or early October, coinciding with the lunar month of Ashwin. Durgadi fosters community spirit, showcases cultural heritage, and serves as a time for family gatherings and festive feasting. It is both a religious and cultural event, celebrating joy and devotion.
