It looks like the Khairatabad Ganesh is still floating in the water. Mayor Bonthu Rammohan said that they have got some foreign drone technology with which they would be doing the Nimajjan fo the Bada Ganesh. The drone was also used and the depth was monitored so that the Ganesh completely goes down to the bottom of the Hussain Sagar waters.
Later the mud that is silt was also removed from the lake bed to see that the Ganesh goes down the lake bed. But the latest is that the Ganesh idol is still visible and has not submerged in the water. The officials have not succeeded in doing the complete Nimajjan of the bada bappa.
It can be seen floating on the waters.
The GHMC officials and others are using boats and going around the Ganesha to see that it drown in the waters.
But that is not happening. A crane is also being used to dig around the Bada Bappa so that the silt is removed and it goes down. But the Ganesh idol is still floating like every year. There is no difference this year also.
It has partially submerged in the waters. The GHMC and other officials this time wanted to see that the Ganesha is completely immersed in the lake waters and that the depth was also increased on the shores.
But unfortunately, the Bada Ganesh is still floating on the lake waters.
It looked as if the depth was insufficient to drown the Ganesha. people are coming to see the floating Ganesha in the waters. The police are unable to control crowds moving towards the necklace road.
Better luck next time.
