Kharagpur a small town compare to Kolkata population is also less but here also every festival celebrate with same enthuse. Here main attraction was different churches .People from all community went to en-light candles in this festival in different churches in town. Kharagpur is a small town but still there was five different churches here.Main attraction was secrete heart,St.Anthony and ward memorial other than this one church is in nimpura and one more near stadium.

I was giving some pictures from different churches for this festival.Now all the churches in Kharagpur also decorated with colourful lighting.

Mainly the people were in Govt. job they were not going to restaurant for celebrating Christmas like in Kolkata.People celebrate Christmas in their own home decorating light and chrismas tree .people also cut cake ,cake sale increase in this festival in town.

Christmas celebration in kolkata 2014

Last year I was giving Christmas celebration picture forKolkata and kharagpur on same post, this time I was giving two different post for these two cities.

Decorated  X-mas tree in kolkata

From 24 evening festival mood started among the people. Most crowed gathered in park street. Due to some intelligence report there is huge security arrangement made in park street but still people went there .From last seven years I was watching that people from IT sector like sector five after finishing their office went to park street to enjoy this festival. There was no specific community gathering, people from all community gathered there for celebration. Main attraction was lighting, concert, and definitely the restaurant. Now in other places  also there was huge gathering like, nicco park, nalban, etc. Different cultural program was arranged over here every restaurant .I was going to mainland china with my other office colleague .this was in embypass area in silver arched. We were taking different delicious food items in dinner, starting with crispy baby corns, some crispy fried items and prawns. Than in main menu we took fried rice with mushroom, chickens dish. In beverage we were taking coke, fruit juice, shampion, wishkey and beer.

In desert we were taking dry fruit ice-cream. Food was really delicious and we return to home at near 11 p.m.

All the salt lake and Newtown and rajarhat area decorated with colourful lighting . In Durgapuja all parts of city decorated with lighting except salt lake but in Christmas this area also decorated so this enhance the beauty of this area.

In nalban a musical show was perform and in salt lake stadium one marudyaan mela was organized by Marwari community were different Rajasthan cultural program perform.
 Definitely the decoration in park street was much better than this area but I prefer less crowed to enjoy anything .From bidhan nagar to airport area road also decorated with lighting .As I was stay in kestopur where christen community also decorate all the road with colourful lighting and also made some pandal with tharmacol and different items, where Jesus and their followers statues were made.

In the rest of the country people fight for conversion and different issue but in Kolkata it’s very hard to know who was christen and who belong to other community because all were came together to celebrate this festival.

I was really surprised by behaviour of this city, here people had enough time to discuss for politics but they never waste their time in discussion for religion.

This was really a unique feature of city of joy.
