Overview
Durga Puja for families in Malkajgiri
Durga Puja honours Goddess Durga, the fierce yet compassionate form of Shakti who, in the Devi Mahatmya, defeats the buffalo demon Mahishasura. She is worshipped as a mother who protects her devotees and restores balance when adharma rises.
Malkajgiri lies to the north-east of Secunderabad and is one of the older residential areas on the Secunderabad side of the Twin Cities. Its many colonies are made up of independent houses and apartment buildings, with busy local markets and a railway connection.

Yā devī sarvabhūteṣu śaktirūpeṇa saṁsthitā, namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ.
