What is Durga Puja?
Worship of Maa Durga, the protective form of the Divine Mother, performed at home or during Navratri with Saptashati recitation and aarti.
Families in Chandigarh book Durga Puja for sharad navratri, especially saptami, ashtami and navami, and we arrange a Pandit who knows the full vidhi.
या देवी सर्वभूतेषु शक्तिरूपेण संस्थिता।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः॥
Durga Puja in Chandigarh: Local Traditions
Chandigarh takes its name from the Chandi Mandir in neighbouring Panchkula, and together with Mohali and Panchkula it forms the Tricity. The planned sectors hold government employees, retired officers and Punjabi and Haryanvi families, while Zirakpur and New Chandigarh add fresh high rise housing.
Chandigarh's Hindu families are largely Punjabi Khatri, Arora and Brahmin households who follow Punjabi customs, with family purohits often of Punjabi Saraswat Brahmin lineage. Haryanvi families from Panchkula's side are served by Gaur Brahmin purohits, and Himachali families prefer Pahadi Pandits for Mundan and Vivah.
