Last month, the Chief Minister had also announced a grant of Rs 28 crore to 28,000 puja committees across the state in the wake of Durga Puja.
She had informed that her government would provide Rs 10,000 each to the puja committees under "community development programme."
This year, Durga Puja celebrations will kick-start on October 14 (Panchami) and go until October 19 (Vijay Dashami).
The frenzy is exemplary which is inarguably difficult to find it anywhere else. With the wildness, the pandals, the gigantic assortment of pujas, skilled aesthetics at a show and the overpowering nourishment, this festival promises an emotional ride.
The irrepressible soul of a regular Bengali amid the puja days of the extraordinary festival of the goddess Durga is incredible!
