Puneites take to immersing their Ganesh murtis in flowing waters

• City Municipality’s call to immerse murtis in artificial ponds largely ignored

Highlights

1. The route to the Vruddheshwar ghat was intentionally blocked and the ghat was not accessible to immerse murtis. The municipality officials removed the block only after the Samiti and devotees took the officials to task.

2. One Akram Khan intently listened to the Samiti’s activists and expressed the opinion that devotees should not think about the cost, and should only procure clay murtis.

3. A YouTube channel interviewed Shri. Parag Gokhale about the HJS campaign.
