Hauz Khas |
Location E-Block Park (Opp Hauz Khas Main Market) Organised By President General Secretary Treasurer |
Started in 1958, every year this puja is organised by the local residents of Hauz Khas and adjoining areas. |
Apart from the traditional approach, the major attraction of this puja is the distribution of bhog on all four days of the Puja. |
On the cultural front, the greatest attraction is the dance dramas produced by an in-house group named Oikotan. This group has been performing for more than ten years, some of its memorable achievements being Mahishasur Mardini, Ganga and Dakshayagna. |
Dance drama troupes, vocal artistes from Calcutta including the famous folk singer Shri Utpalendu Chowdhury will perform at the evening recitals. The celebration also includes participation of local dance troupes, chorus groups, and playwrights even from the puja committee itself. |
The puja is quite famous among the nearby localities including Green park, Malviya Nagar, Panchsheel Park, Khel Gaon, Yusuf Sarai and R.K. Puram. |
