About Ganesh Chaturthi
Ganesh Chaturthi marks the birth of Ganesha, the elephant-headed god of beginnings, wisdom and the removal of obstacles. It falls on the fourth lunar day of the waxing moon (Shukla Chaturthi) in the month of Bhadrapada. Families and community groups install a clay idol of Ganesha, worship him for one to ten days, and then immerse the idol in water (visarjan).
