People from every corner of the town take part on every colony or area specific puja and carnival. Whole day till mid night songs played in loud speaker. Most interesting part of this carnival is different statue decoration by people. As this festival celebrates in each colony and area of the town but New settlement, Jainnagar, Golebazar railway colony area decoration and lighting were most famous in town. Other than this area: Chatispara, Nalipara (Kharida), MS type, Malancha, development are other parts of the town where this festival organized by the local people.
The main concern in this festival is noise pollution and disturbance created by some antisocial elements. Basically the teenagers and youngsters enjoyed a lot. From last couple of years I am not able to watch this festival due to my busy work schedule ,but still the charm and glory of the festival still persist and increasing day by day.
Anyone who can belong from this town easily knows the importance of this festival. This festival is unique and no one find such carnival festival in west Bengal or any part east India. Basically in the month of April- May this festival organized in different parts of town. The big attraction is the idol made by turmeric and its decoration .It looks amazing. This festival is organized by local colony, but dance and orchestra group from all over Bengal and neighbor state came during this festival.
