Virus Outbreak India
Another story replicated in one of the Durga Puja pandals was from West Bengal’s Purulia district where villagers had quarantined a group of migrant workers who had returned home. The villagers prevented them from returning to their village and made them stay atop a tree for 14 days till they completed the quarantine period. A scene was recreated that showcased family members providing food to those atop the trees. Honouring the efforts of actor Sonu Sood in helping migrant workers amid the coronavirus pandemic, a Durga Puja committee has installed his life-size statue at their pandal this year. Kestopur Prafulla Kanan Club in Kolkata chose to depict the sufferings of migrant labourers as its theme for the pandal. Several life-size statues of men and women migrant labourers and their children dot the area around the main pandal for Goddess Durga, besides Sonu Sood. in Kolkata, India on October 22, 2020.
