“This year, we will only set Puja Puja (Pitcher) in Mahastami.
We will immediately flow all rituals on Facebook.
Both visitors and more than five members of the Puja Committee at the same time will be permitted at the Mandap,” said Jishnu Dey, another member of the Puja Committee .
“Covid-19 has taken the victim to our lives.
The second wave is more deadly than the first, and we do not want the third wave to hit the country.
Apart from all the restrictions forced by the government, many people are still careless.
We don’t want to risk anything .
Therefore, we have decided not to allow anyone at the Puja Mandap.
Only members with a complete vaccination certificate to be permitted, “said Deepak Jena, Secretary of the Old Station Bazar Sarbadiya Puja Committee.
