Pune: Ensure Timely Conclusion Of Ganpati Visarjan Procession, Urges Guardian Minister Patil

Pune Guardian Minister Chandrakant Patil on Thursday urged Ganpati mandals to cooperate with authorities and expedite the immersion procession.

"The ten-day Ganesh festival was peaceful, and the immersion procession should follow suit. I appeal to Ganesh mandals to complete the immersion procession promptly," he stated.

Traditionally, the immersion procession in the city spans over 20 hours. However, in 2022, it took a record 29 hours to complete, marking the longest duration since 2014, with large crowds gathering on the streets after a two-year COVID-19 hiatus.
