Durga Puja Challenge submission

MY FIRST POST ON CONNECT

Thank you @Shaunak for this challenge. The scale of Durga Puja in Eastern region of India is celebrated at a grand scale. The celebration in West Bengal is added to UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Jharkhand, the adjoining state also celebrates this festival with great pomp and show. I had the opportunity to experience the mega scale in Ranchi, Jharkhand

If the fellow local guides have any suggestions, I really welcome as I am still trying to learn navigating through the UI.

Thank you so much @SudhanshuTuti for taking part in this challenge. Have you personally visited these pandals as the pictures seems to be transferred through WhatsApp?

Kindly change your category from ‘Introduce yourself’ to ‘Culture’ or ‘Attraction’ or both.

Nice post dear @SudhanshuTuti , all pics are looking amazing

[SudhanshuTuti]

All the photos have been clicked by me at the spot on Saptami @Shaunak . Yes, these have been transferred over WhatsApp from my phone to desktop that’s why these files are renamed that way.
I will change it accordingly
