VOX POPULI SECTIoN IN CELEBRATION PAGE
IN TIME OF INDIA
My Childhood Memories: Although I am living in Bhubaneswar now, in those days during Puja, apart from enjoying the holidays with my village fiends in Jagatsinghpur district, Puja, also had special memories. Our group used to take part in village Puja in the evening and then we all proceed to near by Balikuda Bazaar to see Goddess in Pandals and people in new dresses. Used to bring prasadam for family and elderly people of village. And ( funny mood ) yes also for our then little girlfriends and give them prasadam avoiding people.
Shopping this festive season: Still there are few days remain to Puja, I have already in the puja mood and started shopping for my sister and mom. And during puja, it is their ( Familiy ) choice to shop anything, I just have to accompany.
What I love about the puja: In Bhubaneswar, during the puja in October month, the climate itself is very romantic and the divinity of Goddess make it a sacred moments all through the pujas. I also like the way the processions go one by one in lines after puja.
Onething I would like to change this Puja: I would not say it a change rather call it an addition, if it can be possible. That during the melody programs, after puja or during the puja, if few awareness and semi edu-entertainment programs such as Health, Environment, AIDS, Swine flu, Computer & Internet educations etc can be initiated jointly by Govt. and organizers. It would be fruitful to younger generations and general publics. And Govt can create special tourism packages for foreign tourists and outside people who visit Orissa.
My Prayer this Puja: My prayer this year will definitely include, “ Orissa’s culture-festivals should become popular outside. Online presence of Orissa Tourism should boost the most in comparison to other states such as Kerala, Rajasthan etc. And ( with smile ) of course, hope I should tie the knot this year. And this way will get a chance to take my online marketing goal to a new height.
My Plan: As, I have never taken any holiday vacation so far since I have started my career 11 years ago, I will be taking an exclusive week-time holidays vacation and visit relatives, friends. And of course, I am planning to plant a tree for 3 days during puja.
