Durga Puja in Lucknow: Local Traditions

Lucknow is the capital of Awadh and one of the busiest cities for household puja work in Uttar Pradesh. Old neighbourhoods like Chowk, Aminabad and Daliganj have families who have used the same purohit for generations, while Gomti Nagar, Jankipuram and Sushant Golf City are full of government officers, professionals and families who moved in from across the state.

Lucknow sits in the Kanyakubja heartland of central Awadh, and many local purohit families belong to Kanyakubja lineages, with Saryupareen Pandits common among families from eastern UP. Rites follow Awadhi vidhi, with Ramcharitmanas recitation playing a large part in household worship, and Sanskrit mantras explained in Hindi or Awadhi.
