“Poila Baisakh” is the first day of Bengali New year, from
this day onwards the Bengali New Year began. This day is also very special for
the Bengali people as it the day for celebrating their favorite game football.
In this day the Goal post is worshiped by the team members and followers of the
team, with the hope for achieving more success in the commencing year. The
reason behind this “puja” is to please the Almighty to bless them with the
power and opportunity to get success in the forthcoming season.
This is a 100 year old tradition in Kolkata; all the clubs
of this region celebrate this festival with get energy and enthusiasm. On this
day the Kolkata Maidan is decorated heavily and the Goal Post is painted and
beautifully decorated with colorful flowers, as a symbol of good luck. Till the
date this festival is celebrated in the Mohun Bagan club and East Bengal club.
This is a common believe that if we pray on the very first
day of the year the entire year will be of less hurdle and obstructions. With this
believe all the clubs and their members with their full dedication and honesty
pray to the all mighty for a successful and prosperous year ahead.
