The councilor of that area will select which Mandals will be allowed to set up the idols.The BMC has appealed to these Mandals to use an artificial pond to immerse the idols. The BMC has also appealed to devotees in the ward to celebrate the festival at their homes. The BMC will send its employees to collect idols from big residential colonies. People will not be allowed to go to the pond or river for immersion of the idol they have set up at their homes.It may be mentioned that film stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, and Anupam Kher live in K west Andheri region.

The spread rate is decreasing and the recovery rate is increasing which is more important. We have seen a reduction in the fatality rate as well."Pednekar said they have increased testing so numbers are increasing but maximum cases are asymptomatic. Mumbai will soon have a peak point from there the numbers will start decreasing.She said, "I am confident we will not have COVID-19 during Ganeshotsav because we all have faith in Sankatmochan. Even if Corona gets over or is reduced, we will follow social distancing norms. We will celebrate Ganpati Festival in a simple way. Till we don't get a vaccine for COVID-19, it will remain a matter of worry."( With inputs from ANI )
