**Cheyyandane:** The annual Sri Gauri-Ganesha festival, organized by the local Sri Ganesha Seva Samiti, was celebrated with great grandeur at the Sri Lakshmi Mahila Samaj.
The day began at 7:00 AM with the Sri Maha Ganapathi Homa, followed by the installation of the Gauri and Ganesha idols, Maha Mangalarati, and the distribution of *Prasada*. Arrangements were also made to serve lunch to the gathered devotees.
The rituals were conducted under the guidance of priests Pruthviraj and Rajesh. In the afternoon, the idol of Maha Ganapathi was placed in a decorated *Mantapa* (palanquin) and taken in a procession through the main streets of Cheyyandane town.
Devotees raised spirited chants during the procession, while dance performances by both children and elders captivated the onlookers. The celebration was marked by the bursting of firecrackers. Finally, the idol was immersed in the Karada stream.
Office bearers of the Sri Ganesha Seva Samiti and local villagers participated in the event.
