Hi Everybody,

I am a resident of Chandannagar, Dist-Hooghly, W.B.

We have been organising different functions and shows throughout the puja, for many years.
This year (2009), We (the members of Bagbazar Sarbojanin Jagadhatri Puja Committee) are keen to conduct another colourful memorable event by organising the Chinese Balloons/Lanterns/Dragons/ Dragon Dance…etc at Bagbazar in the eve of our 175th year celebration of the Jagadhatri Puja.

I hereby request to all of you, who are going through these lines,to provide me as many details as you all can,including contact nos., address, name of the concerned communities/persons etc.
My contact nos. are- 9800008091 and 9836065138.

Hi, I have been trying to get a contact detail from your site but am unable to do so. Is there any number or email id I could call or mail to, in order to contact the group? Im looking at having an event soon and would like to use your troupe for a few performances. Im based in Bangalore.
It would be a great help if i could get a contact detail asap.

Regards
Yon

well you can catch the show starting from 23rd till 30th Jan 2009

well to get it started -

23rd on Territi Bazaar
24th and 25th night at Pei Moi Chinese School or Tangra Bazaar (near Chung’s Restaurant) you would see “ChinaGate” beside Kali Mandir.
and then there would be Fete and Dance Party held at Pei Moi Chinese School.

Hi Thien,
I have been wandering to attend chinese dragon show. I love photography and very eager to take some snaps of the dragon dance and the colorful chinese new year celebration in Tangra. It will be a great help if you can inform when and where the chinese community perform the dragon dance in the streets of Tangra during the new year’s day. I live in south kolkata and would visit China town to take the photographs. take care.

Thanks
Rajesh
