Balapur Ganesh Laddu Betters The Record Once Again

The Tradition of Laddu Auction at Balapur Ganesh is on for 25 Years and the Laddu continues to create a new record every year. Last year, the Laddu was picked up for 16.6 Lakhs and this year, bettering the record, Kolanu Ram Reddy managed to get it with the highest bid of 17.6 Lakhs.

The Laddu is considered very auspicious and lucky. It will be distributed to the friends and well-wishers after performing puja and it will also be sprinkled in the fields for a better crop. On the other side, Ganesh Nimajjanam is going on at a brisk pace in Hyderabad.

The biggest idol of Hyderabad (61 feet), Khairathabad Ganesh already started moving towards Hussainsagar and the immersion will take place in a little while from now. Huge arrangements and security were deployed in Hussainsagar and various tanks in Hyderabad to ensure that the immersion happens peacefully.

This year four non-locals have participated in the Laddu auction but it went to the locals only.
