So finally the wait is over! The number of registrations this year was overwhelming and surpassed the expectations of the organizers as said by Vikas Singh, Director, IIMC because not only the club pujas took part but also the “Bonedi bari pujas” took an active initiative.

IIMC Digital Impact Awards is aimed to honour the best durga puja committees on social media platform. Not only the new generation pujas but also the age old puja committees were seen equally active on digital platform. It is a beautiful initiative taken by IIMC towards digitalization and as quoted by Satrajit Sen this is a “Baby step today-a GIANT tomorrow”.

Present in the event, Honourable Guest, Debashis Sen, IAS, Additional Chief Secretary Information Technology & Electronics Department, Govt. Of WB said,” It was really intriguing for me to know how Durga Puja committees are getting the award even before Puja has started, I really appreciate the idea because it is very unique and it supports digitilization. He also added “ It is a great idea and we would really look forward to support these kind of initiatives and apply the ideas in future.”
