The Kolkata municipal council has unveiled a set of measures designed to make puja celebrations more accessible for senior citizens. The initiative will address common mobility issues faced by the elderly in crowded temple precincts and on public transport during peak festival times.
City officials emphasized that the plan is part of a broader effort to promote inclusivity for older residents. While specific logistics are still being finalized, the council aims to streamline access points and provide additional assistance where needed.
The announcement comes ahead of the upcoming puja season, with the city hoping the new arrangements will allow senior citizens to participate with greater ease and safety.
