Artisans Craft Clay Ganesh Idols in Ludhiana for Chaturthi

Ludhiana’s traditional artisans have begun the meticulous process of sculpting clay idols of Lord Ganesha as the city prepares for the annual Ganesh Chaturthi festivities. The craftsmen, using locally sourced clay, are hand‑molding each figure to meet the demand of households and public pandals across the district.
The choice of clay reflects a growing preference for eco‑friendly offerings, as these idols dissolve without polluting water bodies, unlike some plaster alternatives. Artisans report a steady flow of orders, indicating the community’s continued commitment to environmentally conscious worship.
These freshly crafted statues will be installed in homes, temples and temporary pandals throughout Ludhiana in the days leading up to the festival, where devotees will gather for prayers and cultural programs.
