Which festival have you celebrated recently? Write a short description
Perhaps we can say that West Bengal is a land of festivals . There is hardly a month which does not have festival . But undoubtedly the most important festival of West Bengal is Durga Puja . Recently I have celebrated this famous festival of West Bengal . This four days festival is a Hindu festival but now has become a festival of all . This particular festival is usually held in the month of October to mark the defeat of the evil at the hands of Virtue. Maha Saptami, Maha Ashtami, Maha Navami and Dashami – these are the name of those auspicious four days. People from all religions celebrate the first three days with great pomp and show. Everybody wear new clothes, visit Puja pandals ,have different kinds of delicious foods and enjoy the fullest. All schools and colleges of West Bengal are closed during these days. People float themselves with the waves of enjoyment. But Dashami is the last day of this festival, the day to give visarjan to Maa Durga. We all bid Good bye to Maa with tears in our eyes and start counting the days of her arrival for the next time.
