May all be happy, healthy, and blessed. Our country and state continuously walk forward on the path of development, this is only my prayer to him.”
The ten-day-long Ganesh Chaturthi celebration began on Tuesday. A festive cheer was palpable across the country as people were busy decorating their homes with flowers and rangolis and bringing idols of Lord Ganesha into their homes.
