ECO FRIENDLY GANESHA



This unique project involves the making of Lord Ganesh idols from Paper pulp. These idols are made from shredded paper of ‘Ramnaam’ notebooks used by the devotees who write Ramnaam and deposit the notebooks in the organization Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam (AUBR).



These idols disintegrate easily upon submersion as compared to idols made from plaster-of-paris. A notable aspect is that, paints used are non-toxic, thus controlling pollution immensely.
The volunteers of SAUF, AUBR and other organizations collectively make these idols for the Ganpati festival every year In the year 2007, the organization prepared and distributed nearly 3500 Lord Ganesh idols.
