the 'vani' of Upanishad - 'Uttishthita Jago'. The entire pandal would
be made by the shape of lotus. And lotus is here the symbol of
downtrodden of the society. Floating lotus leaves will be there each
weigh of 55-56 grams. All the decorative lotuses, its leaves will be
fake but owing to craftsmanship, will look like original. 70 models of
downtrodden, whom faces will be of lotuses, would be there. The artist
Snehasis Manna thinks, the theme of lotus and peaceful image of
goddess Durga would represent the blend of Bouddha (lotus) and Bengal.
