India marks start of Ganesh Chaturthi festival with prayers, festivities, INDIA, IN - 31 Aug 2022
People in the western state of Maharashtra and its capital Mumbai Wednesday decorated their homes with flowers and lamps for the first day of Ganesh Chaturthi, one of India's major festivals which runs for 10 days. Revelers in Mumbai transported home on huge trucks idols of the elephant-headed god Ganesha, also known as Ganpati, where they will be worshipped for the next 10 days and then immersed in water to mark the end of the festival. During the 10 days of Ganesh Chaturthi, Mumbai is the scene of various festivities including people visiting "pandals" - tent-like structures in which idols are placed - and worshipping the god with prayers and rituals at home.
