In the village of Kshirgram in East Burdwan, Durga Puja is celebrated without a Durga idol. Instead, the villagers worship Goddess Jogadya as the ultimate power, following an ancient tradition that has been upheld for many years. The Dashabhuja idol of Maa Jogadya is worshipped throughout the year, and only the Navapatrika is considered as Durga during the puja. This unique custom has remained unchanged over the years, and even outsiders appreciate and admire it. The villagers of Kshirgram continue to enjoy the joyous festival in this distinctive way.
