Will it ever stop raining this year?
The question hung heavy all through Saturday as kolkata & suburban area struggled through an unprecedented unseasonal rainstorm. 155 mm rain in 12 hours, the wettest October in at least 15 years.

 Bengali’s main festival month is October. Almost 3 days was hanging for rainfall in Durga puja time. Now just 5 days left Diwali & 12 days left Jagadhatri Puja. Gods knows!!!!

The people of Chandannagar have been started preparation to celebrate the Jagadhatri puja. The clay artist starts to breathe in life in the images of Jagadhatri.  Such unmatched skills come in the limelight during the festive occasion like Jagadhatri Puja. They have started the basic work with the help of bamboo sticks, straw, clay, jute rope etc.
