Jalpaiguri: Mansa Puja was a few days ago. And one of the ancient traditional pujas of North Bengal, Mansa Puja and Bazi Mela are celebrated with fanfare at the initiative of the Baikunthapur royal family of Jalpaiguri. In keeping with the times, the list of food has also changed in this fair. In the past, instead of Dhaper Khai, Moya, Gaja, Jilipi, Chinese food Chowmin, Momo and various new fusion foods have taken place in the current list. This time the new taste of Jelepi caught the attention of the fair.
A special treat for those visiting the Rajbari fair is the jelly made by Sushant Pal with various fruits. This time Sushant made pineapple, mango and chocolate jelly at Rajbari’s Mansa Puja fair. And this is the game. Eight to eighty visitors to the fair gather every day to eat this special jelly.
In this context, Sushant Pal, a seller of pineapple jalepi, said, “Since last year, the new flavored jalepi made with different fruits has won the hearts of people. This time also, I am able to give this fruit jalepi to the mouths of all who come to the fair organized on the occasion of Rajbari Mansa Puja. This is a matter of great joy.” A customer said, “Nowadays, various fusions of food can be seen. I came to the fair and saw fruit jelly being sold. I bought it. It tastes great. It’s a completely new idea. I feel very good.”
