Indore's iconic Khajrana Ganesh Temple is set to launch a ten‑day Ganeshotsav starting Sunday, marking the beginning of one of the city's most celebrated religious observances. The festival will run for ten consecutive days, drawing devotees from across Madhya Pradesh and neighboring states.
Organisers have announced that approximately 1.25 lakh modaks will be prepared and offered to worshippers as part of the ritual bhog. In addition to the sweet offering, a schedule of cultural performances—including classical music, dance and devotional chants—has been arranged to entertain the gathered crowds.
Given the expected surge in footfall, the Indore traffic police have implemented a new diversion scheme. Vehicles approaching the temple precinct will be rerouted through designated alternate roads, and additional traffic personnel will be stationed at key junctions to ensure smooth movement.
Authorities have urged devotees to cooperate with the diversion plan and to follow safety guidelines, emphasizing that the measures aim to prevent congestion and maintain order during the high‑attendance event.
