Careless dumping of Ganesh idols in
waterbodies blocks the natural flow of
water
The chemical paints used to decorate
the Ganesh idol contain mercury, lead,
cadmium and carbon and this
increases the acidity and heavy metal
content in the water.
Plaster of Paris (POP) is not a naturally
occurring material and contains
gypsum, sulphur, phosphorus and
magnesium.The idols take several
months to dissolve in water and in the
process poison the waters of lake,
ponds, rives and seas.
