The deity of the Goddess Durga 2012


Kundu Durgamela : The worship of the deity of the Goddess Durga had been started at Kundu Durgamela more than 175 years ago at the time of queen Kali Kumari Debda of Gar Patharmohra. There was an event about their Durga worship inception.
Once, three brothers had come from Rasikganj of Burdwan ( It may be more than 200 years ago) for their business purpose and settled here. After few years, about their land , the younger brother Ramkumar suited against Goswami of Shyamnagar (near village) at Burdwan Court.  When judgment was declared in favor of Ramkumar, hearing this news with joy and victorious mind he had arranged the worship of the deity of Goddess Durga at Kudu Durgamela first.

In an incidence, when his son Brajalal kundu ( nick name ‘Braja’) was absence for a long time, the charge of the worship of Goddess Durga was transferred to the inheritors of Gosaidas Kundu (elder brother of Ramkumar Kundu) by the then king in the name of  ‘Rajasik puja’. Actually worship was not ‘Rajasik puja’ it was family puja and controlled by Ramkumar family. When, Brajalal Kundu had come,he didn’t get back the chance to take over the charge of worship of Kundu Durgamela as the proper inheritor of the founder of Kundu Durgamela, out since then.
Present day, not only Kundu family but all the nearer as Das etc share and enjoy this worship and the worship has been performing in ‘Rajasi way’. All the Kundu families are the pivot of this Kundu Durgamela, most of the money come from their donation.  Activities of this Durgamela are mainly controlled by the inheritors of Gosaidas Kundu.
Source of fund : Kashiram Kundu, the 2nd brother of Gosaidas Kundu, had only a son Shyamkumar Kundu. In his marriage a few years, he was died without living any child. After the death of Priyabani Kundu wife of Shyamkumar Kundu, the deserted properties were deployed at the worship purpose of Kundu Durgamela by their near inheritors. Approximate 10 bighas  (3 Acre) agricultural land under controlled of Priyabani Kundu is being used in the Kundu Durgamela as the main source of puja fund every year.
