Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief and former Bihar Chief Minister, Lalu Yadav, visited and offered prayers at the Ganpati Pandal in Patna.

Lalu Yadav was invited to inaugurate the festivities at the Ganpati Pandal located at Pethiya Bazar in Patna on Saturday evening.

Earlier, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, along with his family members, offered prayers at his residence in Nagpur on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi on Saturday. The decoration at his residence was done on the theme of Chandrayaan 3.

Gadkari said that Ganesh Utsav is a symbol of our culture and is celebrated with great enthusiasm and full devotion.

The Ganesh Chaturthi festivities kicked off on Saturday with great excitement and joy across the country. Devotees, including those in big cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Surat, and Delhi, are celebrating the auspicious occasion with devotion and happiness.

Ganesh Chaturthi, a vibrant 10-day festival, commenced on September 7 and will continue until Anantha Chaturdashi. This festival, also known as Vinayak Chaturthi or Vinayak Chavithi, honours Lord Ganesha as the 'God of New Beginnings' and the 'Remover of Obstacles,' celebrating his wisdom and intelligence.

In every city, people welcomed Lord Ganesha into their homes and pandals, filling the air with the sound of prayers, music, and festive chants.

From grand processions to traditional rituals, the celebrations in the country began in full swing, marking the start of this joyful festival across India.

Devotees welcomed Ganesh idols into their homes, offered prayers, and visited the colourful pandals. The streets were filled with the sounds of devotion and joy as people came together to celebrate the festival with enthusiasm and heart. The colourful decorations, lively chants, and the fragrance of sweets added to the festive spirit that could be felt everywhere. (ANI)
