This is the Naktala – Bansdroni Durga Puja pandal list for 2026 (Puja runs 17 to 21 October) as a walkable route in south Kolkata: the famous pujas and the neighbourhood ones on the same lanes, with the nearest metro station, peak queues, a route map link, and the food and toilets on the way. The headline pandals here are Naktala Udayan Sangha.
The order below starts at the pandal nearest a metro station (Gitanjali Metro) and always walks to the closest pandal next, with walking minutes measured on OpenStreetMap streets. It is a readable default, not a plan: the planner reorders stops around your time, queues and what you want to see, and skips the ones that would not fit.
