Kolkata: Several puja organizers have taken the initiative to fill up holes that were dug for bamboo poles to erect pandals. Members of several clubs have started work to restore damages to roads and pavements on Sunday, a day before offices and educational institutes reopen.
Hazra Park Sarbojaninhas filled up holes with loose soil and planted saplings on the ground where the puja was held.
Dengue season is not over, so keeping that in mind several organizers have started covering open holes on an emergency basis. Many had to wait till Saturday due to Lakshmi Puja which prevented the dismantling of pandals. Kumartuli Sarbojanin Durgotsav used small pieces of bricks to fill the holes. Organizers, along with labourers, filled every hole that was dug for planting bamboo sticks.
