Bantwal, Sep 6: The idol of lord Ganesh, set up by the Hindu Seva Samiti was taken in a procession through the town for immersion on Saturday September 6, evening.





















Heavy security was arranged through out the route as communal tension is still prevailing in the town. Lord Ganesh was worshipped here for four days before the idol was immersed in a lake. The procession which began at B C Road, passed through Ramalkatte and Bantwal by-pass. Colourful tableaux, bands, and music, enthralled the people who gathered to watch the procession.

      Good spirit and good celebration. We should respect each others belief then only peace and harmony would prevail. Festivals are meant for sharing love and peace and uniting the people. Mr Tilak advocated the celebration of Ganesh festival to unite the people of India against the British. We should all unite and fight foreign enemies. But what we do today in the name of religion and celebration is offending other religions. I send my good wishes to my Hindu brethrens for their prosperity, long life, peaceful co existence and happy society on the occasion of Ganesh festival.
