Keeping up with the eco-friendly theme for Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations, an idol of the elephant-headed God was made using banana flowers in Chennai.
Around 7,000 banana flowers were used to build the mammoth 10-feet idol which took around 10 days to construct.
The idol is constructed in a seated position with a swastika sign on its blessing hand.

In Maharashtra, where the festival has a greater significance, many idols have been created using clay and other degradable materials.
In Bengaluru, Sathya Sai trust made a Ganesh idol using sugarcane. After the pooja, the sugarcane which is used to make the idol will be distributed in the public.
