About this pandal
Rautara Durga Puja carries the highest average rating on this entire list, but it's important to flag: this pandal is in Kultikari, Shyampur II block, Howrah district — not Purba Medinipur — roughly 85km from Tamluk town.
What to expect
Reviewers describe an elaborate pandal and idol with strong local pride, alongside cultural programmes, sports and other events during the festival.
Good to know
Durga Puja 2026 runs from Shashthi on 16 October to Vijaya Dashami on 21 October, with Maha Ashtami on 19 October drawing the biggest crowds across the district. Located in Kultikari, Shyampur II, Howrah district — best treated as its own trip, not part of a Tamluk-area route.
Quick answer
Is Rautara Durga Puja part of the Tamluk pandal circuit?
No — despite the highest rating on this list, it's located in Howrah district's Shyampur II block, about 85km from Tamluk, so plan it separately.
