Durga puja Pandal Decoration 2009

One of the most sacred occassions for the Indians, Durga Puja is the biggest festival for the Bengali community. It is the occassion when everywhere across the state of West Bengal grand pandals (huge and elaborately crafted temporary structures erected to temporarily house idols) are set up to house life-sized or bigger idols of Goddess Durga and her four children for four days. Earlier the pandals just used to be grand structures but with time, more and more innovations began to be made and each pandal began to have a theme. In recent years, it has become somewhat of a tradition and style statement to relate each Puja Pandal with a theme. Know all about the themes of various Puja Pandals in Kolkata for the year 2009.

The preparation for this puja and celebrations begins days prior to the festival. Usually, the Durga Puja is done on a society level and the idols and Durga puja pandals (tents) for the Puja are set by the puja management commission of the area.

Thrilling idols of the Goddess adorn the Durga puja pandal. The ambience of the Durga puja pandal is also taken mind of and given a very holy and sacred look. The idol of the goddess is set over a higher stage and sitting preparations for the priest as well as devotees are done near the platform.

Making of these Durga puja pandals pursue well set plans that use bamboo poles, wooden planks and cloth.

The designs of the Durga puja Pandal are done in agreement with space obtainable and the community inhabitants. It has now befallen a trend to set designer Durga puja pandals with complex lightings and complex patterns.
