Its a matter of personal choice.
Secondly it is dargah not durga.
Durga is a hindu godess.
And dargah are usally build on tomb of muslim sufi saint.
So pleas don't mix up two things.
It can lead confusion.
There has many school of thought of islam.
They have differ on many things.
Personally i think you can visit dargah to show your respect to sufi saint and can pray for their soule to allah.
But you should never pray for yourself in dargah.
You should ask anything from allah directly.
Going dargah/mazar/darbar is a cultural thing for muslims of indian sub continent.

Thanks alot people do not understand sufis
This is what I wrote on another post
With all due respect
As a Sufi I do not think ur understanding the Babas ( we do not call them saints) Sufism is more about the love of God That you can achieve with humanity and praying to God.Learn how to give up things we want
Learn not judge and just find a way to God
Babas help us gain the knowledge to understand how to find God
We respect there teaching as Sufis and honor them
Alot of the 500 year Sufis are like lawyers to God.
Because they received what we call enlightenment.
That's why we're encouraged to pray, fast and not Fear but love God
This is how punjabi Sufis view God. People worry so much about going to heaven but forget true knowledge that Allah has.
We also are strongly encouraged study other religions and understand how we view God from our views .
The problem is in sum parts of India and Pakistan people take the Babas as Gods Thats a big No , also the magic part is NO
Lastly 1. It's between u and God 2.God is forgiving 3.There is no right path to God. 4.Love God's people 5. Learn to have some patience
This is what Sufism has taught me and I'm still learning
Sorry this was bugging me had to say
