Vinayak Chaturthi is also known as Vinayak Chavithi. It is a festival that symbolizes new beginnings. It marks the worship of Lord Ganesha, the destroyer of obstacles, who is worshiped before auspicious work. Devotees in the country and abroad celebrate his wisdom and intelligence with decorated homes and pandals, prayers, music, and vibrant processions.
