Durga Puja in Mudiali–Tollygunge

Mudiali and Tollygunge are in the south around the Lake Gardens and Tollygunge belt, at the end of the north–south metro line.

In this dataset it sits in the South zone, and it carries two pujas.

Tollygunge metro puts you inside the cluster. The neighbourhood is level and residential, and the lakes are a few minutes' walk if the crowd gets too much.

Crowds build through the evening and peak between about eight and eleven at night from Saptami onwards. The same walk on Chaturthi or Panchami, or before ten in the morning on any day, is a different and much easier experience.

All two have a confirmed position, so every one of them can go into a route, show a distance from where you are standing, and appear on the map.

All of them are recorded as community puja in the master dataset.

Mudiali–Tollygunge sits in the South zone alongside eleven other neighbourhoods this site lists pujas in: Bhowanipore (14), Ballygunge–Gariahat (7), Deshapriya Park–Kalighat (5), Garia–Patuli (5), Jodhpur Park–Selimpur (5), Santoshpur (5), Chetla–New Alipore (4), Golf Green–Netaji Nagar (4), and others.

Those counts are worth reading as a rough measure of how much walking a neighbourhood will give you rather than as a ranking — a para with four pujas within three hundred metres of each other is a better evening than one with eleven spread over two kilometres.

The zone guide below has the whole picture, and every neighbourhood on it has a page of its own.

Tap Add to route on any puja below and it joins your route plan. The Route Planner orders your stops, draws the walk between the ones whose positions are confirmed, and keeps the list on this device between visits — so you can build the evening at home and follow it on the street.

Nothing on this page describes a 2026 theme, a timing or a crowd level, because no such thing has been published for these pujas. Where the site knows something it says it; where it does not, it leaves the line blank rather than filling it. A pandal listing with an invented opening time is worse than one with no opening time at all.

Names come from the PujoKolkata master dataset, which is the editorial source of truth for what these pujas are called, which neighbourhood they sit in and how they are organised. Coordinates come separately, from two sources: the IndianOil–Kolkata Police Puja Guide, and community-curated puja maps of the city. Where both know a puja the guide wins, and where a position is only roughly known the puja page says so. Nothing here is geocoded from an address or a postcode: a pin derived that way looks exactly as real as a true one while sending you to the wrong street.

If a puja you know is missing, or something here is wrong, it is a gap in the dataset rather than a judgement. The list is rebuilt from the source on every deploy, so a correction there appears here automatically.
