Ganeshotsav 2026: VVCMC Announces Special Facilities, Ro-Ro Jetty For Ganesh Idol Immersion After MP Hemant Savara’s Push

Ganeshotsav 2026 is set to see enhanced facilities for Ganesh idol immersion in Vasai-Virar, thanks to the persistent efforts of MP Dr. Hemant Vishnu Savara. The Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation (VVCMC) has announced special measures to ensure smooth arrangements for the festival. Two toll-free helpline numbers have been established, along with a dedicated Disaster Management Office and additional officers and staff to assist during Ganeshotsav.

The civic body has also decided to set up a Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) jetty to facilitate the immersion of large Ganesh idols, addressing a key concern raised by Dr. Savara. This measure, in coordination with the Maharashtra Maritime Board and the police, aims to prevent difficulties during the immersion process and ensure a safer, smoother Ganeshotsav.

Dr. Savara's push has led to the establishment of dedicated facilities, including an administrative office, toll-free numbers, and a Ro-Ro jetty, all of which are expected to provide significant relief to Ganesh mandals in the region.
