As you are aware, the Ganesh Festival is the largest celebration in India, with the majority of it taking place in the state of Maharashtra. Ganesh Ji is considered the primary deity in all Hindu rituals, and in the Konkan region, there are many more ways for people to celebrate this festival. Since I am from the Konkan, I chose my hometown of Khed Market for the Photowalk Meetup. Our city market is full of small businesses, many of which are situated there especially on special occasions and festivals. In accordance with the idea provided by and inspired local guide @AjitThite to Supporting small local businesses , we organized the Konkan region photo walk meetup on ganpati festival.
It’s getting harder to survive there on this rainy daily, My preferred method is by bike, where I stop at various businesses to browse their merchandise and take some pictures. yet a lot of stores are stocked with decorations and puja sahitya items.People in our city create a variety of beautiful decorations for their homes, but they need different supplies from the local area. As a result, our small local business owners packed their stores for the Ganesh festival. I managed to photograph and cover a few of these stores, which is sufficient to light up our market. Each store has unique items that are sold, including flowers, lights, and electrical outlets.People mostly avoid traveling to the large cities they purchase from since local shopkeepers frequently buy goods for big cities like Mumbai, Pune market, and resell here, and people also acquire what they want in their hometown.There are numerous creative shops in this neighborhood that take the materials that are purchased and create their own one-of-a-kind decorations.
In order to survive and expand their business, our small business owner stocks items primarily based on occasion, though stationary stores may occasionally carry certain items as well. At the photowalk meetup, we observed numerous shops that display a variety of goods based on customer demand, including decorations and pooja and sahitya items.
Additionally, there is a small local business owned by an artist who creates eco-friendly Shadu idols, or Ganpati idols, that are primarily purchased by people.Additionally, those local artists create quite lovely and alluring idols…
Twelve virtual attendees joined us for our photo walk meetup, and we had a great time. I really loved their company.I express my gratitude to everyone who attended, dedicating their important time to see and explore small, local businesses In my hometown.
धन्यवाद @Shrut19 ताई प्रतिक्रियेबद्दल, हो खरच बाजार खुप सजला आहे, आणि काही अगरबत्ती ,धूप विक्रेत्यांकडून लोकांना आकर्षित करण्यासाठी दुकानांन् समोर लावलेल्या अगरबत्तींच्या सुवासाने फिरत असतांना वेगळंच चैतन्य निर्माण होत.
@NERKARAMIT I appreciate you reading my post and responding. It’s okay if you can’t attained a meetup. Indeed, do visit our khed once. We hope to have a physical meet-up in Konkan at Khed until the end of September
@Praniketmore खूप छान मिटप झाली.गणपतीची तयारी करताना किती गोष्टी लक्षात ठेऊन आणाव्या लागतात.त्या साठी बाजारात फिरणं किती महत्त्वाचा आहे हे आता सगळ्यांच्या लक्षात आलं असेलच. माझ्या लहानपणी माझ्या वडिलांसोबत अशा खरेदी करायला नेहमी जात असे त्यामुळे या गोष्टींचा आकर्षण फार होतं चालत फिरण्यात खूप मजा येते आणि चालता चालता बऱ्याच गोष्टी पाहायला मिळतात तुझ्यासोबत तीच मजा आम्हा सर्वांना आली. मीट पहताना आपल्या गणपती साठी काय आणायचं राहिले हे सुद्धा लक्षात आलं त्याबद्दल तुझे आभार धन्यवाद.
