On Anant Chaturdashi, Ganesh idols were immersed in various locations across Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, on Friday. The Ujjain Municipal Corporation ensured the protection of water bodies and provided arrangements for devotees. Special vehicles collected idols from major ghats and sites, including Hira Mill Kund. After the rituals, idols were transported to KD Palace for immersion.
To prevent release of worship materials directly into water bodies, separate vehicles and collection facilities were arranged. Waterproof tents were set up at Hira Mill Kund for devotees, considering weather conditions. The Lokmanya Tilak Ganeshotsav Maha Ayojan Samiti also conducted an environment-friendly immersion, with the committee convenor, MLA Anil Jain Kaluheda, immersing a clay Ganesh idol installed at his office. The water from the dissolved idol was used for watering plants, following a 12-year practice.
