This year, as Durga Puja already arrived, there is a unique sense of excitement, and the theme they’ve selected is “Child Trafficking”, which is not only fascinating but also socially important.

Uncovering Kashi Bose Lane Theme: Child Trafficking

Everyone was in wonder and deep thought when the Kashi Bose Lane Puja committee revealed this year’s theme. The topic of child trafficking resonates with the general public and draws attention to a serious problem. The artists have poured their hearts and souls into creating idols and scenes that celebrate the victory of good over evil while illustrating the awful fact of child trafficking.

Sashi Panja, the minister of women’s & children’s development and social welfare in Bengal, conducted a “Chokkhudan” on Wednesday, by drawing the goddess’s eye. 86 club members have also promised to donate their eyes in honor of the 86th Durga Puja celebration, showing their dedication to a worthwhile cause. This effort now has the backing from the Bengal Health Department.

Somen Dutta, a general secretary of the Kashi Bose Lane Durga Puja Samity said, “Trafficking has become a terrifying shadow throughout the world as an organized crime. We wonder if children of all ages will ever be able to return to society after being auctioned off and sold into child labor, begging, or sexual exploitation. So, in this environment of such hardship, do they still desire to be ‘Umas’?”

This year’s theme was created by Rintu Das, while Amal Pal brought the idols to life, and Srijato wrote the Kashi Bose Lane theme tune. Visitors can enter the pandal starting on October 16.

The street becomes a place where people can travel on an emotional trip. As you move around the pandal, you will see images that speak of both the brutality of child trafficking and the survivors’ bravery. It is an event that has a lasting impression because of the intricate work, bright colors, and careful attention to detail that gives the stories a life.

By visiting the Kashi Bose Lane theme’s pandal, you are not only experiencing the visual display but also contributing to raising awareness about a serious issue. Also, the artists’ dedication and creativity are on full display, making it a treat for the eyes.

The Durga Puja held at Kashi Bose Lane goes beyond the theme. It is an occasion to honor Bengali customs, culture, and traditions. It is a cultural immersion unlike any other due to the scent of incense, the dhak’s rumba-like beats, and the colorful attire of the attendees. There you’ll get a real sense of community, as people from all walks of life join together to celebrate.

The locals take great satisfaction in welcoming guests and showing their culture. Additionally, without indulging in delicious street food, a trip to Kashi Bose Lane will never be completed, like sweets and snacks a must-eat cuisine from there.

Visiting Kashi Bose Lane during Durga Puja is about more than just having fun; it’s also about celebrating the spirit of unity and dealing with a real issue that has to be addressed. It is an experience that you will remember long after the celebration is over because of the committee’s careful consideration while selecting the theme.
