Ganesh Festival: Pune Mandals Seek Earlier Immersion; Panvel Launches Online Portal
During Ganeshotsav, some Ganesh groups in Pune want to start their idol processions earlier.
They met with the police and other Ganesh groups to talk about it.
Meanwhile, in Panvel, the government made a new online system so groups can easily get permission for their celebrations.
This helps make the festival safer and easier to organize.
