The settlement of Kumartuli, meaning "potter locality" (Kumar = potter. Tuli = locality), is

over 300 years old. It was formed by a bunch of potters who came to the area in search

of a better livelihood. Nowadays, around 150 families live there, earning a living by

sculpting idols for the various festivals.

In the lead up to Durga Puja, thousands of artisans (many who are hired from other

areas) toil diligently in approximately 550 workshops to complete the idols of Durga intime for the festival. What's pleasing to note is that the idols are made out of

environmentally friendly materials such as bamboo and clay. This differs from the idols of

Lord Ganesh, which are predominantly made out of Plaster of Paris for the Ganesh

Chaturthi festival, particularly in Mumbai.

The majority of Durga idols are crafted by lesser known artisans, who are experimental

in nature. However, there are a few renowned names that make traditional idols thatinspire deep devotion. One such person is Ramesh Chandra Pal, who works out of his

studio at Raja Nabakrishna Street. There's always a rush to see his idols during Durga

puja.
