Our Heritage & History

Rampurhat Hattala Sarbojanin Durgotsav: A blend of 73 years of tradition and glory. Started in 1954, through the blessings of elders, enthusiasm of the youth, and collective neighborhood effort, it has evolved from a local event into a cherished festival for the entire Birbhum district.

1954: The Auspicious Inception

Started when there were only a handful of Durga Puja celebrations in the town of Rampurhat. It marked the beginning of an unstoppable journey of artistic triumph and community harmony.

Milestones & Idol Distinction

We hold the unique distinction of sculpting the largest idol of Goddess Durga ('Rani Ma') in the entire district, repeatedly winning accolades like 'Best Idol' and 'Best Puja' from Biswa Bangla to TV9 and ABP Ananda.

The Pioneers of Theme Songs

First in Birbhum district to introduce the concept of a dedicated 'Theme Song' to Durga Puja. Continuously committed to surprising pilgrims with fresh architectural concepts and spiritual themes every year.

Today (2026 & Beyond)

Transcending boundaries, Hattala is no longer just a club festival—it is the beating heart and pride of Birbhum district, safeguarding authentic Sanatan traditions with state-of-the-art celebration.
