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.

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.

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.

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:

Immersion of painted idols and dumping of organic wastes in the lakes, as a part of religious activities, are immensely adding to water quality deterioration. Incorporation of alkaline, alkali-earth metals and heavy metals through the idol-making paints are likely to promote the hardness and heavy metal concentration of water in these surface water bodies, and therefore, deteriorate the water quality. In this purview, periodic analysis of Nagavara and Ulsoor lake water was carried out to investigate the effect of idol immersion activities on the lake water quality. Water samples were collected

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

Abstract:

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
