Stop this nonsense! These are man-made practices using synthetic materials! You cannot call her Bharat Mata if you pollute her!

Well done to these young people! When I was in Gujarat, so plenty of good, and the bad like you’ve shown.

Govt has to implement strict fines for people polluting the rivers and lakes .

As long as hinduism exists this will happen

Shut up, we don’t do that in the UK until you Indians arrived from India. This tradition has built up in India alone and now it’s been brought to the UK where Ugandan Asians have been here for decades. Nobody ever hated us Gujarati.

lmfao gujjew

Who makes money from the religious drama? Who doesn't mind people come together in the name of God all over the world, dressed for it,buying decorations, going crazy with celebrations. It's a celebration bond.They allow it to make people fools. Fools have one function, be foolish

Don’t make reels, bring solution. Make a rope trap and after they have made their contribution pull those and clean it that way. Some beliefs hold memories but we must find a way to regulate that. And second this offering are flowers and clay diya noting undecomposable.

Government employee if just stand their and start giving them fine then watch they all will run away. Indian zero civic sense. The whole concept of throwing stuff in rivers on the name religion is bullshit. No religion tells you to pollute rivers.

Or just use clay made diya which gets dissolve easily. Not these plastic shit

Yes, exactly. Naturally biodegradable, but these people throw everything in the river, even carrier bags. What nonsense is this? Spirituality means going within. Do good for the environment, that’s what Dharma teaches us.

A divine hindu leader should play it's branding around this.

Very True.. this has to be stopped

Please educate our own people during Ganesh Utsav, Navrati and Durga Puja. Our rivers, lakes, ponds especially fresh water bodies are totally polluted. The sea and oceans are different ballgame altogether. Plaster of Paris can be used for interiors and not for Idols

Why don't you ban sale of such products...or rather encourage sale of natural leaf diyas.

The temples and the management need to educate them with a curse if they pollute ..that's the only way

The problem is that there is no authority worth their salt who can enforce laws strictly no? Seems everything is on the citizens...so they behave like this...

Completely agree but due to lack of knowledge and fear of uncertainties , these rituals are followed in most part of the India.

Don't pollute the river, sea, land, Or bhoomi mata, Ganga mata, jal mata will punish us by flood, cyclone or earthquake in other words, it will harm other living beings

@muralisunderr

Illiterates follow this practice. We Hindus are just idiots.

Ganesh ki moortiyan aur Devi ki moortiyan ka Visarjan Kaise rokoge

There should be net setup in pond so all this goes to net and then someone can remove it daily

It it possible to create a virual landscape and experience to recreate these things? AI/ VR

Ritual or culture hai pr jo disposal ho ya natural materials hi use karne ka try karo.

मूर्ख अन्धविश्वासी जनता है 😂

At Shanti Kunj, the priests asked us not to pollute ma ganga, and to bury the items somewhere, as the whole land around ma ganga is sacred.

I would get so mad Not hv so much patience like this guy

Brainwashed

Religion ruins everything.

Use leaf diyas as we used to Who uses plastic
