Last week, the whole city of Hyderabad was busy with the Ganesh immersion.
Me and my daughter witnessed the same immersion sight next to our apartment which is surrounded by daily wage workers.
A group of about 6-7 children gathered around carrying a drum made of cardboard box. I did think they were playing something but later I realised that they were all busy in the immersion of the Ganesh they had prepared.
The Ganesh (which was invisible for me though) was placed on a tiny truck which too was built with cardboard boxes. All the children danced and shouted around their truck while pulling the chord which was tied at its end.
Dancing merrily, they brought their idol to an open field filled with shrubs, cleared some place for themselves, dug a hole and happily sent away their GOD.
The whole act was finished in just 10- 15 mins time.
While all the others try to immerse their favourite God with pompous and glory, the children displyed it in their own way.
