💨 Abstract

Two community Durga Puja committees in Kolkata, including the Netajinagar Sarbojonin Durga Puja Committee, have refused the West Bengal government's grant of Rs 85,000 in protest of the alleged rape-murder of a doctor at a state-run hospital. The committees plan to fund their puja through local contributions and celebrate in a subdued manner, with symbols of protest.
