Mahbubnagar: Stressing that protection of environment and nature is very important, Excise Minister V Srinivas Goud said that in the Vinayaka Chaviti festival season everyone should place clay Ganapatis as it can only save the environment from polluting the environment from dangerous chemical colours and plaster of Paris which are the major water pollutants causing great damage to the environment.

These clay Ganapati idols were prepared at Mahbubnagar Municipality under the auspices of BC Welfare department for the free distribution to the people living in the municipality limits.
"Every year the Ganapatis made of plaster of Paris and harmful chemical colours are causing extensive environmental pollution damaging water bodies under water aquatic animals.
