India, Sept. 29 -- You know its Durga Puja when you see pandals, markets packed with life-sized idols, embellished streets, and assorted food stalls across the city. The five-day event has always been a prominent part of the festival season in the national capital.

While the main celebrations started on Sunday,puja committees since the past few weeks have been spending hours finalising the themes, pandal decorations, idols as well as immersion plans.

While the rituals and cultural programmes stay traditional at all Durga Puja pandals, the committee at Delhi Cantonment has decided to incorporate patriotism this time, with a theme focussed on "Operation Sindoor". The elements include a drone, rifle, chopper, and the Rafale fighter jet.
