Saraswati Puja In Rural Bengal

Today is Saraswati puja, the goddess of Learning is being worshipped
in every household. So, I went to a village of Bengal to observe it.
When I was passing a 'para', I noticed Saraswati on the yard of a
house. The arrangements were very minimal - A room for the idol
decorated with sarees, the mother of the kids was cleaning the yard
and a buffalo was remained there with feeds and the 'gola' of paddy
was there right beside the buffalo. I liked the scene very much and
captured it for the readers.
