Brindavan Ganeshotsava-2025 hosts the festival on a bigger scale

Mysore/Mysuru: On account of Gowri-Ganesha festival, Brindavan Ganeshotsava-2025 has brought 1,021 idols of Lord Ganesha closer to devotees, engulfing the locality with festive fervour.

Brindavan Badavane Nagarika Hitarakshana Vedike, Mysuru, has for the first time consecrated a big number of Ganesha idols at the premises of Sri Mahaganapathi Temple, along with an array of cultural events from Aug. 27 to Sept. 3.

A mammoth platform has been erected for the most popular festival among the masses. From the installation of one-feet tall Ganesha idols to that of six to seven-feet tall, the event promises to be more attractive, with the installations depicting Devaloka, along with the idols of Lord Shiva, Parvathi and Subramanya.
