The idol of Shri Ganesh made from 1.25 lakh betel nuts in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh has been registered in the World Book of Records. Its certificate was given to Rishabh Yadav’s team late on Monday night. It is said that to register the record in the World Book, Rishabh Yadav’s team had approached the World Book Record team which had reached Ujjain. This idol of Shri Ganesh made from 1.25 lakh betel nuts was made by Rishabh Yadav at Mahakaleshwar International Square on Ganesh Chaturthi.

It took three months to make the statue. It was installed at Mahakal Square in the name of ‘Mahakal Van Ke Yuvraj’. For the past few days, a large crowd of devotees had been gathering to see Shri Ganesh with betel nut. Like every year, this year also, on the occasion of Ganesh Utsav, Rishabh Babu Yadav Mitra Mandal is performing the Puja and Aarti of Mahakal Van Ke Yuvraj at Mahakaleshwar International Square in Ujjain. Last year, a statue of Ganesh Ji made from 9000 peacock feathers was installed here.

The Ganpati ji who is installed this year has been installed with the name of Mahakal Van Yuvraj. The reason for this is that Baba Mahakal is the king of Ujjain city and his son, the Yuvraj of this place, has been adding grandeur to Shri Ganesh Utsav every year. In this program, every year a Bhajan Sandhya is also organized by a new and good Bhajan singer. This year on September 11, Radha Ashtami, Bhajans were presented by Bhaiyon Maharaj and Shankh Modaks were offered as Prasad. This event is organized by the members of Mahakaleshwar International Chauraha, all the area residents, shopkeepers and the members of Rishabh Babu Yadav Mitra Mandal.

Giving information, Rishabh Babu Yadav of Aradhana Mahakaleshwar International Square said that Ganesh Utsav is celebrated at Mahakal Mandir Square for the last 60 years. This year Ganesh idol has been made from 1.25 lakh suparis. An application was made to register this idol in the World Book of Records. On Monday, the team of World Book of Records came and we were given a certificate.
