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.

India is a rich cultural country in which diverse cultural and religious festivals are organized. Idol is an image of a god which is used as an object of worship. After worshipped, these idols are immersed into water bodies. Idols are constructed by plaster of paris, clay, cloths, small iron rods, bamboo and decorated with different paints such as varnish, water colors etc. which can lead to significant alteration in the water quality after immersion. Paints which are used to colour these idols contains various heavy metals such as Mercury, Cadmium, Arsenic, Zinc, Chromium and Lead. Particular

Abstract:

Indians celebrate a large number of cultural and religious festivals throughout the year. Idols represents the deity, which is worshiped. At the end the idols are mostly immersed in water bodies. Ancillary like flowers, papers, ashes are also disposed in the water. These activities are often ignored as the source of water pollution, as these activities have aesthetic and cultural value. In this study, impact of Durga idol immersion on the physicochemical properties of the water of two ponds in Asansol (West Bengal, India) was assessed. One of the two pond is well managed, where the local autho

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:

The immersion of Plaster of Paris (PoP) idols during religious festivities has significant environmental repercussions, particularly for aquatic ecosystems. This study explores the impact of PoP idol immersion on water quality and aquatic life, highlighting the toxicity of materials such as heavy metals in synthetic paints and non-biodegradable PoP. Laboratory tests compared water quality parameters before and after immersion, demonstrating increased pollution levels. The study concludes with recommendations for eco-friendly practices to balance cultural traditions with environmental preservat

Abstract:

The Ganga River and its tributary Hooghly River in India are distressed by variable levels of heavy metals contamination in river water and sediments by industrial effluents, agricultural runoff, cultural practice, idol immersion and domestic waste. The concentrations of heavy metals (Pb, Hg, Cd & Cr etc) in the river water are repeatedly above the safe limits (above max. admissible & desirable limits) thus making them potentially toxic, hazardous to aquatic lives, ecosystem, biodiversity health and livelihood of people who are using the rivers for drinking, irrigation, pasture and oth

With reference to toxic metal contamination, water samples were collected quaterly from four stations mentioned for a period of two years (January 2020 to December 2021). Heavy metals, i.e., iron, zinc, chromium, copper, and nickel were determined in surface and bottom waters taken from the Lower Lake, Bhopal, using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) according to the Standard Methods of American Public Health Association (APHA). The range values of these metals were compared with the tolerance limits as
