Answer: Ashvin
Notes: Durga Puja is celebrated in the Hindu calendar month of Ashvin (usually September-October of the Gregorian calendar). Huge and grand pandals are set up in all parts of the state. In each pandal, different cultural events are organised throughout the day. People dress themselves in new and traditional clothes on these days. Durga Puja is a major gift-giving and shopping season in West Bengal with people buying clothes and different gifts not only for the family members but also for close relatives and friends.
