About Kali Puja
Kali Puja (Shyama Puja) is the worship of Goddess Kali in Bengal and eastern India on the Amavasya night of Kartik - the same night as Diwali - with the main puja at nishita, around midnight, and red hibiscus (joba) as her flower. Many households keep it at home with an image or idol of the goddess; neighbourhoods hold it in pandals. Say which form your family keeps.
Duration: The main puja is at night, around midnight; a home puja is shorter than a pandal's. Agree the timing with the purohit.
