'Durga-Puja 2021' was CANCELED due to the current pandemic situation.
We are extremely sorry that we had to CANCEL this year's Durga Puja due to the current pandemic situation in our province. We did try our best to measure all the possibilities of hosting the event and after a careful review of the guidelines and restrictions currently in place, we had no other option but to take this heartbreaking decision. But we printed and published our 2021 annual magazine and we have delivered the copy of the magazine to our members who paid their annual membership by Oct 7. We have published the family photos of the members' who already provided the photos and gave consent to do so. We are also collecting 2021-2022 membership fees ($40/family & $20/single). To pay both, please e-transfer to info@krishti.ca or mail a chq (payable to KRISHTI) to 15848 13 Ave SW; Edmonton, AB, T6W 2N5, Canada. Please mention your email address in the e-transfer or write it on the chq so that we can email you the official receipt in time. We did a virtual puja this year along with a live telecast of the event so that willing members could offer 'Anjali' from their homes. Here is the FB page in case you missed watch video
