I was born and brought up in the City of Joy , Calcutta and I call myself a Punjabi Bong. I moved to Gurgaon around 2 decades ago and was not sure if I would be able to experience the Puja celebrations and festivities in the city. Thankfully since Gurgaon has a sizeable Bengali population , this festival is celebrated in many areas and societies and only gets better and bigger each year. This year , Durga Puja is back with a bang have 2 years of muted celebrations due to covid .
Durga Pujo will be celebrated from October 1st – October 5th 2022
