Durga puja theme pitches Kolkata for UNESCO's 'City of

To draw the attention of the UNESCO to declare Kolkata as its first designated 'City of Literature' in India, organisers of a Durga Puja in northern part of the city have set up their puja pandal on the theme of 'Kavigurur Shantinir' or Tagore's 'Abode of Peace.'
Marking its 76th year, the Chaltabagan Durga Puja Committee has come up with this unique theme this year to convince the UNESCO that Kolkata is not only a 'City of Joy' but also a 'City of Literature.'
"I personally think, given the literary heritage, diversity and richness, Kolkata is one of the strongest contenders for such recognition by the UNESCO."
