Durga Puja in Full Swing in Patna

On the Eighht day of the 10-day long Durga Puja on Thursday, the entire capital city lit with millions of colorful lights and attractive huge pandals in the shape of some of the major landmarks of the nation putting the final coat of festival spirit among even the most diehard atheists.

Evoking the memories from the '60's and '70s when Durga Puja in Patna was the biggest event in the nation, Patna'ites, after a long time, relived the old days completely immersing themselves in the sound and sight associated with Dussehra during which people from all religions join hands in a sign of brotherhood sidelining their personal differences aside.

Record crowd was witnessed at Bangali Akhara, known for its Durga Puja celebration for decades, where devotees started to arrive as early as 4:00 am to get a glimpse of Maa Durga.

Prayers were performed at Dak Bungalow Road that was also attended by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar; at Frazer Road, Buddha Marg, Station Road, Pataliputra Colony, Chitkohra, Machhua Toli, Kadam Kuan, Boring Road, Boring Canal Road, Sheikhpura, Mahendru, Gol Ghar, Kankarbagh, Gardanibagh and dozens of other locations each trying to outdo its neighbor offering unique attractions.

One did not have to go to Kolkata to see Velur Math or New Delhi to realize the grandeur of Akshardham Temple. From famous temples to political buildings (Tripura Assembly), to famous forts, as in the Fort of Nizam in Hyderbad, to Laxmi Palace of Baroda, Patna, at least for next three days, has essentially become the microcosm of the nation that, despite its inherent problems and religious differences, becomes one in the pursuit of peace and harmony during this auspicious festival.
