Vijaya Dasami in Kolkata
The festive fever of Durga Puja finally came to an end with the Vijaya Dasami on Friday (Oct 3, 2014) . While the idols were being immersed, there is a tinge of sadness as the wait begins for another year for the annual visit of the Goddess on earth to her parental house. Women on the occasion, however, smeared each other with vermilion, known as Sindoor Khela, as they bid farewell to the Mother Goddess. Images by Avishek Mitra/IBNS
