Ganesh Chaturthi is a significant festival in Goa, celebrated with great enthusiasm. Families come together from different parts of the country and even abroad to celebrate this occasion. The preparations for this festival start well in advance. Women in the household make Modaks, a favorite sweet dumpling of Lord Ganesh, along with Nevri, Besan Laddu, and other savory dishes served on banana leaves. Daily Pooja is conducted, and devotional hymns are sung with musical accompaniment such as Ghumot and Taal. Various rituals take place throughout the festival, culminating in the immersion of the idol in a water body on the final day.
