Explanation

Kumartuli is a historic neighborhood in North Kolkata famous for its traditional potters who specialize in creating clay idols for festivals, especially Durga Puja. The artisans (kumars) sculpt elaborate clay idols of deities. While Kumartuli is in an area associated with artisans, the specific craft is pottery/idol-making, not weaving (that's more associated with places like Shantipur), carpentry, or general artisans.
