The festive fervor of Kojagari Lakshmi Puja has gripped Agartala, with markets witnessing a vibrant rush of shoppers making last-minute preparations to welcome the Goddess of Wealth into their homes.
On the eve of the celebrations, local markets have transformed into bustling hubs. Traditional potters have set up stalls showcasing an array of Lakshmi idols in diverse sizes, intricate designs, and artistic finishes. Since early morning, buyers from all walks of life have thronged the marketplaces, meticulously selecting idols that match their preferences and budgets.
Local vendors have reported a strong and encouraging demand for idols this season. While festival shopping typically spans both days of the observance, merchants remain optimistic that footfall and sales will surge even higher on the main day of the Puja tomorrow.
