On the first day of Ganesh Chaturthi Festival 2024, Lalbaugcha Raja Sarvajanik Ganeshotsav Mandal reported donations totaling ₹48,30,000, according to Mangesh Dattaram Dalvi, Treasurer of the Mandal.

News agency ANI shared visuals of the committee members counting various currency notes and coins. The festival showcases eco-friendly Ganeshas, a replica of Ayodhya Ram Lalla, and other idols draped in black to symbolize the fight against violence against women.

On the second day, devotees gathered at Lalbaugcha Raja early to join the Ganesh Chaturthi festivities. The iconic Ganesh idol remains a central attraction as thousands seek blessings from the deity. The first look of Lalbaugcha Raja was unveiled on the evening of September 5, with the festival running until September 17.

Additionally, a Ganesh idol depicting Ganpati on a replica of the LCA Tejas Mark 1A fighter jet was unveiled at a Mumbai residence.
