Prakash Raj stated that the immersion of Ganesh idols has been completed while the immersion of the Gyanesh idol is yet to take place, referring to the ongoing festivities in Delhi.
Actor Prakash Raj commented on the progress of the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations in Delhi, noting that the immersion of the Ganesh idols has already been carried out. He added that the immersion ceremony for the Gyanesh idol is still pending, indicating that the festival's concluding rituals are not yet complete.
The statement was made during a brief interaction with media representatives covering the city's religious events. Ganesh Chaturthi, a major Hindu festival, typically culminates with the immersion of clay idols in water bodies, a ritual observed across India.
Delhi authorities have been monitoring the immersion process to ensure compliance with environmental guidelines. While the main Ganesh immersion has been completed, officials anticipate the remaining Gyanesh immersion to occur later this week.
Prakash Raj's remarks underscore the phased nature of the celebrations, where different community groups may schedule their own immersion ceremonies. The city continues to host devotees who gather along the Yamuna banks for the final rites.
No further details were provided regarding the exact timing or location of the pending immersion, and organizers have not announced a specific schedule yet.
