Hyderabad, Aug 8 (Hydnow): The famous Khairatabad Ganesh is set to maintain its eco-friendly stance for the second consecutive year, opting for organic colors and clay materials.
The Ganesh Utsav Committee, Khairatabad, well-known for organizing the event, has announced that this year’s Ganesh idol will stand tall at 63 feet, a significant increase from last year’s 50 feet. Singari Raj Kumar, the key organizer of the committee, said, “We are committed to preserving the environment while celebrating this grand festival.”
About 150 dedicated workers hailing from Mumbai, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh have been working tirelessly since June to complete the idol’s construction by September 15, four days before the festival’s commencement date. “The identity of the idol, which holds immense significance for the devotees, will be disclosed within the next three days, Raj Kumar said.
