North Bengal rings in 2025 with joy, devotion and unity
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|January 02, 2025
To ensure a safe and peaceful celebration, the Siliguri Police commissionerate and district police maintained a vigilant watch starting from 30 December 2024
Northern North Bengal welcomed the first day of the New Year 2025 with a unique blend of traditions, celebrations, and spirituality.
While many embraced the festive mood with midnight revelries and picnics at various scenic spots, a significant section of people observed 'Kalpataru Diwas' with devotion.
Devotees gathered at local Ramakrishna Mission Ashrams to honour Sri Ramakrishna, offering prayers and seeking blessings. The newly established Ramakrishna Mission branch at Sahudangi in Siliguri witnessed a large turnout, as hundreds thronged the ashram from early morning to participate in traditional rituals.
For others, the day began with prayers at local temples and shrines. In Siliguri, the Kali Temple drew crowds of worshippers, while in Cooch Behar, hundreds assembled at the historic Madan Mohan Temple to seek the blessings of their revered deity at the dawn of the New Year.
