Barisha Club

Artist: Sanatan Dinda

'Shraddha' is the core theme of the club. The Goddess has been placed under the Shivling – A sacred Symbol of God. The concept of the pandal is built around Shakti (Power) where Ashubh shakti is demolished by the flames of the Shubh Shakti. The enormous blue Shivling with the moon in its backdrop adds a mesmerizing effect under lights. The intent is to show the 'Shristi' and the oldest form of God - Lord Shiva.

Tridhara Sammilani

Artist: Gouranga Kuila

The theme upholds the essence of world peace. In the world of violence they have portrayed the face of peace, Lord Buddha. The pandal is made of Hindu puja elements like "thali", "koshakushi" etc

To establish the power of Godess Durga, they have surrounded the pandal with Trishuls and mata's chunris as per Hindu mythology. The whole pandal is devoted to bring the basic tenets of Hinduism and Budhism together to disseminate the message of Peace. Tridhara Sammilani has been at the core of multiple social service activities since multiple years now so much so that the theme of tranquil world and urge for a free peaceful society has come out of it.

They have invited monks from Mongpu, Darjeeling who have been chanting their trumpets and reading their prayers daily along with the Aarti. The idol of goddess Durga here is residing on the "Mahisasur" and the demon has totally succumbed to the goddess and his pious face is clearly visible. The pratima is made in a metallic shade over the soil.
