There are only few of the banedi and respected old families of the city and around are continuing the family tradition of worshiping of the goddess Durga till date with the proper rituals and all over here.

But, it is true that, the worshiping of goddess Durga is the biggest festival of the Bengalis all over the world now a days.

Actually, this is the age of Sarbojanin Durga puja or Barowari Durga puja as a matter of fact. The literally meaning of the Barowari Durga puja is 12 friends or families has come to perform the worship of goddess Durga. But, in reality it means that, the huge money has to spend for worship of the goddess Durga will not come from one person or family over and all.

We can see many Sarbojanin or Barowari puja in the city and the other places of the state west Bengal(Shialda athletic er Durga pujo, Santosh Mitra scour er Durga pujo, Rammohan sammelani er Durga pujo, Chalta bagan er Durga pujo, simla sporting er Durga pujo,Simla bayam samiti er Durga pujo, Beniyatola er Durga pujo, Ahiritolar Durga pujo, Kumortuli park er Durga pujo, Bagbazar sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Hatibagan Sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Yubobrindo er Durga pujo, Shreebhumi sporting er Durga pujo, Telenga Bagan er Durga pujo, Bidan street er Durga pujo, College scour er Durga pujo, Muhammad ali park er Durga pujo, Park circus er Durga pujo, Adi Baligange sarbojanin er Durga pujo, 21 er palli er Durga pujo, Ekdaliya evrgreen Singhipark er Durga pujo, Phalguni sangha er Durga pujo, Babubagan sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Yodhpur park sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Yatra shuru sangha er Durga pujo, Mitali sangha, er Durga pujo, Nabapalli er Durga pujo, Mudiali er Durga pujo, New alipur sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Tollygange purbachal club er Durga pujo, Udayer path er Durga pujo, Ballygang cultural er Durga pujo, Samajsebi er Durga pujo, Deshopriyo park er Durga pujo, Madax scour er Durga pujo, 22 er pallir Durga pujo, Padmapukur baroarir Durga pujo, 23 er pallir Durga pujo, Sanghashreer Durga pujo, Sammilani er Durga pujo,Muktadal er Durga pujo, Yabamaitrir Durga pujo, Forward club er Durga pujo, 68 pallir Durga pujo, Bakulbagan sarbojanin er Durga pujo, Gokhel sporting er Durga pujo etc.- are some of them only).

The banedi families of the past had shown there wealth in occasion Durga puja by feeding the poor people and for the dancers too.

But, in the Sarbojanin or Barowari puja of this modern age, we can see many innovative ideas. Though, we can say that, each and everything about them is good. No,not at all. They must be more conscious about their responsibilities by every ways over here.

In the TV Channels of this state, like Star Ananda, Mon, Srishti, Sonarbangla, Taaza etc. we have seen the worshiping of goddess Durga from all over the world as a matter of fact. Those programs are very much use full specially for those people,who can not visit the pandals physically for some reason actually.
