[Spartan]

The Khairatabad Ganesh this year will be 59 feet tall and will be immersed in Hussainsagar on September 27, the Ganesh Utsav Committee which started work on the idol on June 12 on the occasion of Sarvesham Ekadashi said. Mr Raj Kumar, member of the Khairatabad Ganesh Utsav Committee said that every year work on the Ganesh Idol commence on Sarvesham Ekadashi as it is considered auspicious. The works began with a pooja at the Khairatabad temple. 

 

“This year we have decided to the keep the height of the idol at 59 feet, one feet less than that of last year. In 2014 the committee celebrated its 60th anniversary and so the height was 60 feet. However, the height will be decreased every year,” he added. Nearly 100-150 artists will be working on the idol. Most of the artists are from Chennai.

 

Design selection would take a month and will be ready by the first week of July. The design would be finalised by the committee’s chairman, secretary and artists. Ganesh Chaturthi falls on September 17 and immersion is on 27. When asked about immersion at Hussainsagar Mr Raj Kumar added, “So far there is no change in plans. Since decades Hussainsagar has been the place. We have not received any information from the corporation or government on shifting the immersion site.”

 

The TS government had earlier announced that the pond in Indira Park will be made the Ganesh immersion point. However, there is no development on that so far.
