The theme of Pally Mangal Samity, Prince Anwar Shah Road Durga Puja is 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. -- A. B.
