hope this helps you
even before the days long festival, Ganesh Chaturthi ends, you can see Ganesha idols thrown here and there, in an entirely disrespectful manner on river sides, seashores and even in front of small lakes in almost every state. It is saddening how our most-loved Ganesha turns into junk or garbage, just after a week of this widely celebrated Ganesha Chaturhi festival. It is depressing to see that after cheerfully celebrating the festival with dance, loud music and happiness, we throw the idols as soon as the festival ends. Does our sense of devotion and respect come only during festivals and ends with the same?
As per a report, just a day after a vast number of devotees immersed Ganesha idols into the sea in Chennai, over 50 tonnes of garbage was collected from there. According to the officials of Corporation of Chennai and a sanitation firm, 30.5 tonnes of garbage was collected from Foreshore Estate and Pattinapakkam beaches and roads heading to them, and 20 tonnes of waste was gathered from Palkalai Nagar Beach in Palavakkam. This is a report of only one state.
Each year Maharashtrians immerse Ganesha idols into rivers and just within a week, these statues can be seen on the seashores. Reportedly, there are more than 150,000 statues immersed, in Mumbai alone. Well, it is indeed a matter of concern. As per Mumbaimunicipality law, these idols must be cleaned from the lakes and water bodies before they start reacting with organic matter, but still the concerned authorities overlook it for months. Sad and haunting. Just take a look:
