People in Jalna city of Maharashtra are flocking to a pandal to take darshan of Lord Ganesh's idol which is made up of 107 kg silver.
The idol, installed at a public pandal near the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj statue, is crafted in pure silver and stands five-and-a-half feet tall, an office-bearer of the organiser mandal said, adding that it costs Rs 90 lakh.
The casting of this idol began nearly six months ago, said Yogesh Mandhani. -- PTI
