4 major pujas across Kolkata shut down as gloom overshadows festive mood

Chetla Agrani’s organisers quickly acted to prevent a possible crowd surge after an earlier disaster in Chorbagan. Other popular Durga Puja spots like Tala Prattoy and College Square also halted entry as a precaution. Organisers across these venues are reassessing crowd management strategies to enhance safety and prevent similar incidents. Some pujas reduced celebratory activities in response to the nearby tragedies, demonstrating a commitment to public safety.
