Abstract:

This paper intends to prepare the environmental impact of "Ganesh Idol" & "DurgaPratima" immersion on water quality of Kakerpura Lake, Mhow. For this purpose site of Kakerpura lake was selected where idols are actually immersed. Water samples were collected in morning at different intervals i.e. pre-immersion (August) immersion (September, October) Post immersion period (November). The "Ganesh Idols" & "DurgaPratima" are made up of degradable and non-degradable components and paints containing heavy metals due to that immersion activity deteriorates water quality.

Abstract:

Water is one of the most important substances on earth. All plants and animals must have water to survive. If there was no water there would be no life on earth. Various factors play a part in this worrying state of affairs in India, such as dumped industrial and household waste and open defecation. But a surprisingly high level of pollution comes from religious ceremonies. The Ganesh festival is one of the biggest festivals in Mumbai. These idols are made up of non biodegradable materials like plaster of Paris PoP and synthetic paints used are also a major source of contamination and sediment

Abstract:

In Maharashtra, Ganesh Chaturthi is one of the major festivals celebrated, and many idols are immersed throughout the festival. Traditionally, idols were made of biodegradable materials like clay, but in recent times, various other harmful materials like POP (Plaster of Paris), oils and paints are used which tend to bioaccumulate in organisms. The present study analysed various physicochemical parameters of water which included temperature, turbidity, total solids (TS), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), conductivity, density, salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, hardn

Abstract:

Ganesh Chaturthi, known as Vinayagar Chaturthi in Tamil Nadu, is a prominent Hindu festival observed across India, typically during the months of August and September. Traditionally, clay idols of Lord Ganesha are installed in homes and public spaces for worship and subsequently immersed in nearby water bodies. However, in recent years, many idols have been crafted using non-biodegradable materials like plaster of Paris and thermocol, and adorned with synthetic paints. The immersion of such idols has led to contamination of water bodies, adversely affecting aquatic ecosystems. To mitigate this

Abstract:

Central Pollution Control Board guidelines and court directions are yet to achieve the desired result of keeping rivers and lakes free of polluting heavy metals and PoP used in idols. As Durga Puja and Dussehra festivities conclude, rivers and lakes once again became more polluted following immersion of idols worshipped in puja pandals across cities. The guidelines formulated by the Central and state pollution control boards (CPCB and SPCBs) went largely unheeded in spite of some efforts by municipal bodies and police to curtail the practice.

Rivers in India are regarded as sacred from ancient times. The river Narmada is the third holy and fifth largest west flowing river of India and biggest west flowing river of the Madhya Pradesh. The quality of water is most important as compared to quantity of water, especially for potable purpose purity is of the prime requirement. With this view-point, to check the surface water quality during idol immersion the study has been carried out at six major historical places through which River Narmada is flowing, during Ganesh idol immersion and Durga idol immersion.

Abstract:

With the world facing an ecological crisis, Hindus are challenged to reflect on the ways they impact their environment. The last few decades witnessed a rise of theological reflections on Hindu traditions—especially scriptures and concepts (not least by western scholars)—that advocate environmentally friendly perspectives. This stands in sharp contrast with the multiple examples of how Hindu ritual practices cause harm to the environment. Ganesha Chaturthi is a festival that due to the public element of immersion of Ganesha idols, has led to severe pollution of waterbodies. Because of the atte

In the present study,Water Quality Index (WQI) was used to assess the quality of water in Safilguda lake. Safilguda lake was the source of drinking for the Nawabs and British authorities and was also the source of irrigation to the farmers. But today the agricultural fields have turned into housing colonies and multistorey complexes which led to the deterioration of lake water by direct entry of sewage into the lake. Three sampling stations were selected within the lake for the collection of surface water samples at monthly intervals for a period of one year. The water samples were analyzed fo
