Durga Puja 2019: From Shashthi to Vijayadashami; Here’s everything you need to know
If you are looking to participate in this year's festivities, little knowledge will do you no good. You, therefore, need a day-wise breakup of the festival.

No one celebrates festivals like India does, and no Indian festival is complete without its set of rituals. Year after year, people follow them so as to keep the cultural sanctity intact, and traditions alive. Usually, the latter half of the year is reserved for these festivities. Among them, is the annual Durga Puja celebration which, though has its nucleus in the eastern part of India — especially in the state of West Bengal — is celebrated with great flourish and gusto in other states as well, courtesy of the ever-growing Bengali community.
