Mohammad Ali Park will celebrate its 56th Durga Puja with a White House-inspired theme. Artist Kush Bera's idol focuses on water conservation, addressing Bengal's water crisis.

Durga Puja was seen as a test of his administration’s ability to protect minorities, whose communities have said the Yunus-led government is failing them.

Durga Puja is an extraordinary example of intangible cultural heritage. It merges religious significance and secular messages, old artistic practices and new artistic innovations.
