Spending some time, I went to the village of of my father-in-law. Name of the village - Bandipur. The village situated in Hooghly district of West Bengal. It is a very old village and Durga Puja's organise here since the British Raj. I spent the day here with the family of my wife. My sister-in-law came at noon with her husband. That means, a kind of get together! Then, at evening, I visited some of puja's there. At first, I visit puja of Hattola. The image of this puja is really beautiful! These pics are from there.

Then I went to another 'para' or locality of the village - Chakraborty Para. I have seen the lighted pandal from far. Then I went to the premises. It is a permanent 'bedi' for goddess Durga. The roof decorated with brilliant lightings. The image is nice as the previous years. The 'Dol mancha' i.e. the place of Radha-Krishna brightly decorated.
