Durga represents the Divine Mother. She is the energy aspect of the Lord. Without Durga, Shiva has no expression and without Shiva, Durga has no existence. Shiva is the soul of Durga; Durga is identical with Shiva. Lord Shiva is only the silent witness. He is motionless, absolutely changeless. He is not affected by the cosmic play. It is Durga who does everything.

Shakti is the omnipotent power of the Lord, or the Cosmic Energy. The Divine Mother is represented as having ten different weapons in her hands. She sits on a lion. She keeps up the play of the Lord through the three attributes of Nature, namely, Sattwa, Rajas and Tamas. Knowledge, peace, lust, anger, greed, egoism and pride, are all her forms.

This is the eighth year that the residents of Airport City will be celebrating Durga Puja. In 2009 we celebrated puja of our campus for the 1st time. At that time only few residents had started staying in this complex who had taken the initiative. Now most of the flat owners have started staying in this complex .A lot of changes have taken place since then. Participants are also large in number. We organize a lot of events during the four festive days. This includes cultural programs by residents as well professionals who are specially invited. Also food is an inseparable part of the whole event. Stalls are set up offering delicious snacks.
