Kolkata witnessed a spectacular drone and laser show over the Hooghly River on Saturday as part of celebrations for Paschimbanga Diwas and International Yoga Day. Around 3,000 drones illuminated the night sky, creating images of iconic Bengali personalities, Durga Puja, Dakshineswar Temple, and the Second Hooghly Bridge. Organised by the West Bengal government at Prinsep Ghat and Millennium Park, the event aimed to highlight Bengal’s rich cultural heritage while promoting the importance of yoga and healthy living. Thousands of spectators gathered along the riverfront to watch the colourful display, which transformed Kolkata’s skyline into a vibrant celebration of tradition and technology.
