The idol has been handcrafted by a family of fifth-generation silver craftsmen from Kolkata.
Not only this, but it also houses a diya (oil lamp), which holds a sacred place in every Hindu household. This silver diya is also handcrafted by the family artisans of fifth-generation silver craftsmen in Kolkata.

A fragrant piece of sandalwood obtained from Mysore, Karnataka is given in place of the land for Bhoodan (donation of land). Sesame or white sesame seeds brought from Tamil Nadu are given for Tildaan (donation of sesame seeds). In addition, a handmade, 24-karat pure and hallmarked gold coin in Rajasthan has been introduced as Hiranyadan (donation of gold).

The first of the four special boxes contains ghee or butter from Punjab, which everyone knows how special it is considered to be.

Besides, the fourth box contains jaggery, which has been imported from Maharashtra.
