Kolkata: Durgapuo is very old in the Basu family of Boral village in South 24 Parga. This puja was started almost 300 years ago. Once you continue to follow the generations, it is closed for an unknown reason. Prior to independence, in 1941, Tulsikaran Bose, the family member, again started this Puja. Since then it has been drawn. The relatives of the family of Bose came back to the village whenever Durga Pujo, wherever they are. At that time, everyone met together.
This is not a family matter now days but it has become a tradition I think.
