Kumartuli Park
“Gangotri to Ganga”
Maa Durga's journey with the sacred river, source to city.
Pujo 2026 · Kolkata
This Pujo, WhatsApp becomes your local guide — pandals near you, a hopping list that lives in your chat, and every famous theme decoded. Free, in English or বাংলা.
What it does
Share your location — get the three closest pandals, walking time, and which metro gate to take.
Say “add Bagbazar”. Check pandals off at the gate. It remembers tomorrow, and next year.
What Kumartuli built this year, and who built it. With sources — never rumour.
History, rituals, food near your route, Sandhi Puja timing. Banglish works fine.
Why it exists
Every Saptami, the same argument: “which pandal next?” Pujo Buzz began as a tiny script to settle exactly that — a map, a list, and eventually, a friend in your chat. Built in Kolkata, between two phuchka breaks.
