Drive-in pandals have been mooted which might prove a practical solution in certain wider streets. Rival Puja committees have even joined hands for displaying a common theme so they can perfect the drive-in concept, for example, Apu Trilogy in the case of three adjacent para clubs. But then perhaps three sides open would be a better idea. Except that Hindustan Park has three narrow closed sides and an enclosure of tubes that I wonder about every morning during my walk. Maddox Square which had three sides open is yet to set up. Ekdalia’s bamboos are relaxed while admitting 10 persons at a time into the pandal is being debated.
