About Durga Puja
17–20 October 2026
Durga Puja is the artistic and devotional heart of autumn in Bengal and neighbouring regions. Clay idols of Durga with Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesha, and Kartikeya fill temporary pandals; communities compete in creativity while keeping sacred rite at the centre. Unlike a simple rename of Sharad Navratri, Durga Puja concentrates public worship from Saptami to Dashami, with Navpatrika, Sandhi Puja, and visarjan farewell on Vijaya Dashami. On Madhuma you will find festival essentials for a respectful home Durga Puja—incense, diyas, and Devi puja items—so your celebration feels ready.
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers for shopping Durga Puja essentials.
Durga Puja is the major Bengali festival honouring Goddess Durga’s victory and homecoming, with public worship typically from Mahasaptami through Vijaya Dashami.
No. They fall in the same season and honour Durga, but Durga Puja follows Bengali pandal, Navpatrika, Sandhi Puja, and visarjan customs distinct from North Indian nine-night Navratri alone.
Sandhi Puja is the sacred 48-minute window spanning the end of Ashtami and start of Navami—remembered as the moment of Durga’s decisive victory—timed to the tithi junction.
Families and pandals bid farewell with Devi Boron and Sindoor Khela, then immerse the clay idol (visarjan), marking Durga’s return until the next year.
Keep a clean Devi altar, offer flowers and incense, recite a short Durga stotra if your tradition allows, and visit local pandals respectfully when available.
Bengali clay ensembles typically show Durga with Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesha, and Kartikeya. Madhuma can attach Durga, Lakshmi, and Ganesha by known ids.
