Agartala, 24th October 2026 : In a heartwarming gesture ahead of Lakshmi Puja, noted Ambassa-based teacher Swapan Namas distributed 50 Lakshmi idols along with essential puja materials among underprivileged tribal families in the Hatimara Chhara area, aiming to ensure that economically disadvantaged families could also celebrate the festival with joy and enthusiasm.
According to sources, Swapan Namas visited the area ahead of the festival and handed over the idols and other necessary puja items to the beneficiaries. The initiative was undertaken to support families who often struggle to organise religious celebrations due to financial constraints.
Lakshmi Puja is an important religious festival celebrated with devotion and enthusiasm by many families. However, financial difficulties sometimes prevent economically weaker households from making the necessary arrangements for the occasion. Recognising this challenge, the teacher extended his support to help these families participate in the festivities.
The initiative has brought smiles to the faces of the beneficiary families and conveyed a message of compassion, social responsibility and mutual cooperation. His gesture also highlighted the importance of sharing the joy of festivals with those who are less privileged.
The humanitarian initiative by Swapan Namas has been appreciated as an example of community support and inclusiveness. Such efforts are expected to inspire others to come forward and stand beside underprivileged sections of society, ensuring that the happiness of festivals reaches every household.
