What is CR Park?

South Delhi's beating Bengali heart

Chittaranjan Park — CR Park to everyone who lives here — is the residential colony that South Delhi's Bengali community calls home. It was settled in the 1960s and 70s by families displaced from East Bengal after Partition, and over the decades it has grown into a self-contained slice of Bengal in the capital.

Today CR Park is famous for three things above all: its community Durga Puja, among the grandest in North India; its fish and sweet markets; and its Bengali food — reason enough for its enduring nickname, Little Kolkata.
