Ganesh Utsav Mandals

Ganesh Utsav Mandals are organized groups or associations that celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi, a Hindu festival dedicated to Lord Ganesha. These mandals set up elaborate temporary statues of Ganesha, conduct daily prayers, cultural programs, and community activities during the festival. They often compete in creating innovative decorations and larger-than-life idols, fostering community spirit and devotion. After the festival, the idols are immersed in water, symbolizing Ganesha’s return to his divine abode. These mandals play a vital role in promoting cultural unity, religious devotion, and social engagement within local communities.
