Durga Puja

Durga Puja means a new life, a new hope, a new starting, forgetting all that happened past. And I know I will not be at all wrong if I say, we the Bengali count days at least for four months for these four days. These four days are the most favorite days of a year, for each and everyone of us. Durga Puja, this year was slightly different for me. Unfortunately, I was not at my home as usual, I was in Kolkata. But this gave me the opportunity to feel the nostalgic four days of Kolkata. Starting from the Panchomi night, the five days were truly exceptional.

Where the Heaven Starts

The word was well known to me "DEVOBHUMI", but I was not familiar with it. In the moth of May, just before monsoon we are there, my dad, my mom and me... just a small family tour. When I got a call from my dad, that he had some meeting in Delhi and wants to visit the Devobhumi once again, there was nothing to look back.

These days I have actually been busy with reading those story books, which most of my friends had finished in their school days, on the other hand being very allergic to books never tried to do that. To be very frank, on course of this blog writing I found that it was one of the most essentials part of life that I missed. But the famous phrase "Better Late than Never" boost me up to rectify and enhance my skill to some extent. The white page with black letters scattered on it in a predefined and well known fashion has always been the best means of communication, and in fact I started buying books from StarMark. The depository of that Mall is truly appreciable and that too its atmosphere. Thanks to God very few of us think like me, and all the time I found the Book-Zone is quite calm and silence. Last month, I bought "Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" by Arther C. Doyle. I have also become very much influence by our mos...

Gangtok, the Capital of Sikkim, is always a center of monasteries, monks and mountains. The Seven brothers of Mountain Chain rounding this amThe day of cloudy when we set out for a local tour of the City and Around. There were lots of placed to visit like Golden Stup, Museum, Hunuman Tok, Ganesh Tok, Taschi View Point.
