Autumn in West Bengal spans the period from mid August to mid October. Amongst the six seasons in this State, Autumn is the best of all. As this season is preceded by monsoon, autumn wears a festival and charming look with lush green all around. The floating clouds, clear blue sky, moonlit nights, quiet nature, soothing climate and the rivers and ponds full of water make the nature so romantic.
Autumn is also the season of festivals. Durga Puja, the greatest religious festival of Bengal falls in this season. The other festivals like Luxmi Puja (Dewali) follow thereafter. The distant sound of beating drums fills the early. People, irrespective of their social status, eagerly wait for this happy season, as they enjoy the festivals very much. Schools, Colleges and even office remain closed enabling people to take part in the festivals and enjoy themselves. Everyone is in a holiday mood. This season also being the harvesting season, farmers are happy with their land full of paddy and other grains. The vast stretch of luxuriant paddy crops undulation in autumn breeze fill the heart of the farmers, The little they earn this season makes them happy. Once this season is over, they anxiously wait for harder winter months.
