The Durban Ganesh Utsav, also known as Ganesh Chaturthi, is dedicated to the birth of Lord Ganesha. It took place at the Greyville Racecourse.
On the final day, Sunday, followers immersed the idol of Lord Ganesha in water. This act symbolizes the eternal cycle of creation and dissolution, as well as Ganesha's return to his heavenly abode.
