Mumbai: Mumbaikars will welcome their beloved God Ganesha as 10 days of the Ganesh Festival – Ganeshostav – starts on Friday.
The maximum city has several mandales with historical references that celebrate the festival with many hubbub.
However, because of the restrictions and prohibition of Covid-19 by the police about visiting Pandal directly for Darshan between 10 and 19 September, the pandal also celebrated Ganeshotsav on a much smaller scale.
One mandal originating from the era of Lokmanya Tilak is Keshavji rises Chawl in Girgaon who celebrates the 129th anniversary of this year.
In 1901, tilak became the first politician to visit Pandal.
Chawl is home to around 150 people who gather to make this celebration occur every year, and many significant actors and personalities are used to visit GanPati before the pandemic struck.
The concept of the community celebration novel was started by Local Tilak here who wanted people to come together to fight for independence to show their differences of opinion at the time of the Public Meeting forbidden by Britain.
Another scary fact about ganpati is that this clay idol continues to have the same size for the past 129 years.
The date of this pandal returned to Local Tilak
