“It was difficult to convince workers to come. We made sure that all of them have received their vaccines. Then only they agreed to come to work here,” said Abhijit, a pandal theme artist.

As per the guidelines, pandals shall have to be spacious and open from all sides with separate entry-exit points. Pandals must keep adequate space and arrangements for ensuring physical distancing in terms of the existing COVID-19 pandemic norms.

The festival of Navratri will be observed from October 7 till October 15. This year Ashtami falls on October 13 while Dashami is on October 15.
