The banner and brochure of New Town Durgotsav Samiti were held at New Town Business Club in the presence of eminent actor Abir Chatterjee, Founder, CEO & MD of Bandhan Bank Chandra Sekhar Ghosh, and MD, HIDCO Debashis Sen.

The program started with a mesmerizing flute rendition by eminent flute artist Anirban Roy.

More than 200 volunteers were present on the occasion.

Speaking at the event, Abir Chatterjee said “I have shot many times in New Town and Rajarhat areas. My uncle also lives here. It is indeed a great initiative to organize a puja in this area. People always come back to their homes during the Durga Puja. And to have such a community Durga Puja will help people from this area to rejoice during this time with friends and family”.

The organizers of the Puja Committee announced that the KhutiPujo will take place on 15^th July at City Square Ground. Moreover, they have many other programs also to be held before Puja like Theme Music Launch Programme, Independence Day cum Health Check-up program, etc.

Like the previous year, this time also GLS & Keo Karpin are partnering with the Durga Puja.

The idol maker Anirban Das has named this year’s Puja Komal Gandhar, relating Ragas with Devi Durga.

The puja will be performed by five women priests and women Dhakis like the previous year. Both women priests and women dhakis were present at the occasion.

With the banner and brochure launch, the preparations for the Durga Puja have begun.
