Eco-friendly Mumbai pandal has green Ganpati idol
The Shree Ashtavinayak Mitra Mandal in Mumbai has used 'eco-friendly' decorations and created a 22-foot green-coloured idol of Lord Ganpati. The idol, which has been covered with synthetic grass using natural gum, was made using bamboo sticks moulded by A4-size papers. Mandal chief Ravi Shetty said, "you don’t need to use plaster of Paris to make 20-foot tall idols."
