"Visakhapatnam's Gajuwaka Prepares for a Grand 117-Foot Clay Ganesh Idol on Vinayaka Chaviti"



In an impressive display of devotion and creativity, the Gajuwaka region in Visakhapatnam is all set to unveil a monumental 117-foot clay Ganesh idol during this year's Vinayaka Chaviti festival.

Following their remarkable feat last year, where they erected an 89-foot clay Ganesh idol at Lanka Grounds, the dedicated organizing committee, known as 'SV Entertainments,' is ready to raise the bar yet again.

The grand unveiling of the 117-foot Ganesh idol is scheduled for 11:16 a.m. on September 18, marking a highly anticipated moment for locals and devotees alike. 


 To ensure that this year's idol is a sight to behold, the organizers have enlisted the expertise of 'Kothakonda Nagesh,' a renowned clay idol craftsman hailing from Telangana.

Under his skillful guidance, nearly 95% of the idol's construction has already been completed.

The meticulous planning and dedication of the organizing committee promise to make this year's Vinayaka Chaviti celebration an unforgettable experience for all who visit Gajuwaka.

As the towering clay Ganesh idol takes its place, it symbolizes both religious reverence and artistic excellence, embodying the spirit of unity and devotion that characterizes this annual festival.
