Durga Puja, also known as Durgotsav, is an auspicious and revered festival. Durga Puja 2024 is a 10-day festival, with the last five days, October 9–13, being the most important. The festival is dedicated to Goddess Durga, the goddess of peace, intellect, compassion and unconditional love. Devotees worship Goddess Durga’s divine incarnations during this time. The celebrations take place in many Indian states, including Assam, Tripura, West Bengal and Odisha. The Indian diaspora in other countries also celebrates the festival.
