According to the Lunar calendar, the 11-day long celebration starts off on the fourth day of the Bhadrapad month (hence called ‘Chaturthi’), which falls on September 10 this year! The festival celebrates the arrival of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Parvati to Earth from the Kailash Parvat, and includes the installation or ‘sthapana’ of Ganpati idols on elaborate pandals and their immersion or ‘visarjan’ at the end of the tenth day. The Hindu festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayak Chaturthi is a much awaited event, especially in Northern India.
