The Durga Puja is ending and with a heavy heart all bid her goodbye. We all start wishing for the next Puja even before it ends. The pandals get ready for the procession for taking Maa Durga for Bhashan or the immersion. Amidst Sindur Khela and holy incantations, the idols of Maa Durga with Lakshmi, Saraswati, Kartik and Ganesh are immersed into the water. For Bengalis, it’s also time for socialization and be their gourmet best.

Sashti is the inception of the Durgotsab festival with bringing Maa Durga’s idol into the pandals. Sashti means sixth; it signifies the 6th day after the new moon in the month of Aashin. This time of year has the most beautiful and clear blue skies and cool breezes. Adding to the festival’s beauty, the picturesque Kans grass (kash phool) stands out to welcome Maa Durga like a pure white carpet.
