Mumbai's famous 'The Lalbaugcha Raja' Sarvajanik Ganeshotsav Mandal revealed the first appearance on September 15, a famous Ganesha statue in Mumbai.
The mandal (group) was started in 1934 at Lalbaug Market in South Mumbai. This year marks the 90th anniversary of the Lalbaug cha Raja Ganpati.
The place where many devotees come every year to seek blessings from Lord Ganesha will be open from Tuesday, September 19 to Thursday, September 28.
The chance to see Lalbaugcha Raja Ganpati will start on September 19.
You can visit and see the idol anytime until September 28, 2023.
For Lalbaugcha Raja, there are two lines—the 'Navsachi line' and the 'Mukh Darshanachi line'.
Navsachi line: This line is for devotees to go on stage, touch the deity’s feet, and receive his blessings.
Mukh Darshanachi: This line is only for devotees to see the idol from a distance.
The 'Navsachi line' has more crowd than the 'Mukh Darshanachi line' and the waiting period might extend to 5-6 hours as well.
You can watch Lalbaugcha Raja darshan live on the mandal's official YouTube channel and social media handles.
