Demand for clay Ganesh idols goes up
Correspondent : James Edwin
Warangal: With environmental consciousness increasing among the public, the demand for clay Ganesh idols is on the raise in the district as larger section of devotees preferring clay idols to install during the Ganesh festival.

Different non-government organisations and government officials are promoting use of clay Ganesh idols in view of the hazards caused by the idols made of Plaster of Paris (PoP) and using chemical colours. At schools, the students are being explained the importance of clay idols for environmental protection.

As a result, those engaged in the making of Ganesh idols using PoP and chemical colours have also been shifting to making of idols using clay and natural colours to meet the growing demand for the clay idols.
