The Maharashtra government has given the Shree Siddhivinayak Ganpati Mandir Trust permission to buy 20 residential and commercial properties adjacent to the famous Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai. The purchase, valued at ₹94.12 crore, is part of a larger plan to expand the temple's facilities and alleviate overcrowding. The acquisition includes a three-story residential building, Ram Mansion Cooperative Housing Society, close to the temple, and another property, Siddhivinayak Cooperative Housing Society, on trust-owned land.
