Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, is a joyous Hindu festival celebrating the birth of Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles and the god of wisdom and prosperity. Devotees bring home beautifully crafted idols of Lord Ganesha, perform rituals, offer prayers, and seek his blessings for success and good fortune. The festival lasts for 10 days, culminating in the grand visarjan (immersion) of the idols, symbolizing the cycle of creation and dissolution.
