Ganesh Chaturthi is one of the most celebrated festivals of India. Stepping into 125th Year of Celebration All around India, It is still been the most pious and celebrated festival in India. Millions of People seek Blessings of The Lord in order to achieve Happiness or Goals.
Started around 1600 century, during the rule Maharaja Shivaji, it lost its patronage when India was under British rule. Later under the leadership of Lokamanya Tilak, this Festival was revived in Pune with sole purpose to counter attack the British Rule - Banning the Gathering of the people more than 20, excluding Religious assemblies because of Muslim Prayers on Friday.
The festival became a public event later, in
1892 when Bhausaheb Laxman Javale ( also known as Bhau Rangari), installed the first sarvajanik (public) Ganesha idol in Pune.
