Minister Reddy Urges Eco-Friendly Ganesh Chaturthi in Banaganapalle
A minister in Kurnool wants everyone to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi in a way that's good for the planet.
He's asking people to use clay statues instead of plaster ones.
He wants people to care more about their devotion and helping the environment, and not so much about how big or colorful the statues are.
The government will provide help for putting the statues in the water safely, and the minister's wife will give out clay statues to encourage people.
The police also gave some instructions, like getting permission and avoiding songs that could cause trouble.
Minister Janardhan Reddy urged eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations using clay idols.
He emphasized focusing on devotion and environmental protection over idol size or color.
Arrangements include smooth idol immersion at Kaipa Cheruvu with boats, cranes, and staff.
Clay idols will be distributed by the minister's wife in Banaganapalle town.
