A group of legal professionals living in Delhi has organized a community Durga Puja celebration, known as 'Barir Pujo,' to preserve the cultural traditions of their hometown, Kolkata. The event, hosted by an organization called Probash & Co., takes place in the Chittaranjan Park neighborhood, an area historically known for its significant Bengali population.

By establishing this local celebration, the organizers seek to recreate the communal atmosphere of Durga Puja for those who are unable to travel back to West Bengal during the festival. The initiative highlights the importance of cultural continuity for internal migrants living in the capital, focusing on the social and ritualistic aspects of the holiday rather than large-scale commercial displays. The organizers emphasize that the effort is driven by a desire to maintain a sense of home and community spirit while residing in a different urban environment.
