Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Indian dancer Sanchita Bhattacharya and her students rehearse a dance sequence depicting Hindu goddess Durga during a photo call in Kolkata September 16, 2005. Sanchita and her students will stage their performance on October 1, 2005, the eve of the Durga Puja festival. [NOTE: The reference is to Kolkata's observances of Navratri (the highest holiday of the year in Shaktism), which takes place from October 4-12, 2005.] In Hindu mythology, Durga symbolises power and the triumph of good over evil.
