A big THANK YOU to the Mumbai Police, the huge army of volunteers, the BMC cleaners, student clean up gangs and the people of Mumbai for ensuring a safe and peaceful Ganesh festival.
While we all enjoyed the carnival atmosphere and the sight of the huge Ganesh idols proceeding for immersion, let us remember that immersion is environmentally unfriendly, indeed highly polluting our seas and water bodies. Let us move to symbolic immersion before it is too late and we destroy our seas forever.

A big THANK YOU to the MUMBAI POLICE and the Volunteers for exemplary crowd management ... and believe me it was crowded on Sunday. A big THANK YOU as well to the BMC CLEANERS and Volunteer Clean Up gangs (mostly students) who tidied the beach the next morning even as the last few big Ganapatis were being pushed out to sea.
Thanks also to the people of Mumbai who enjoyed the festival in a peaceful manner. No instances of misbehaviour were reported in such huge crowds which in itself is commendable.
While we all enjoyed the spectacle of the huge Ganpati floats and the carnival atmosphere, let us not forget that IMMERSION is highly polluting and we are destroying our seas and water bodies with this practice, which dear Ganesha would most certainly not want.
The Ganesh festival should move to the practice of symbolic immersion of small permanent idols.
Ananta Chaturdashi - Final Immersion Day @ Girgaum Chowpatty. Everyone turns up to watch the procession of huge idols on their way for visarjan. These baby idols had a sweet charm and held their own amidst the giants.

Al enkele weken terug hebben de burgemeesters van Knokke-Heist en Blankenberge onderling overleg gepleegd over carnaval 2022. Daarbij zijn beide burgervaders overeengekomen hun beslissing maximaal op elkaar af te stemmen. In beide badplaatsen wordt carnaval in de krokusvakantie uitbundig en over meerdere dagen gespreid gevierd. Burgemeesters Björn Prasse en Piet De Groote hebben nu na veel wikken en wegen de knoop definitief doorgehakt: dit jaar gaat ook aan de Oostkust carnaval niet door en zullen de carnavalisten hun ludieke knaldrang nog wat moeten inhouden tot 2023. Afgelopen vrijdag kondigde het overlegcomité van de Vlaamse en de federale overheden de nieuwe coronabarometer aan. Die treedt in werking vanaf 28 januari 2022 en start door de stijgende besmettingen en ziekenhuisopnames meteen in code rood. Dit houdt o.m. in dat dynamische publieksevenementen en dynamisch horecabezoek verboden zijn. Over drie weken zou men de situatie opnieuw evalueren. Maar zelfs in code oranje -als dat er dan zou komen- is er zowel een plafond van 60 tot 80% bezetting in de horeca als een verplichting tot crowdmanagement voor evenementen. Wat dus wil zeggen dat mensen afstand moeten blijven houden. Dat staat haaks op het volksfeest dat carnaval is en moet zijn. Carnaval op een ander moment in het jaar vieren, ziet de meerderheid van carnavalisten al evenmin zitten.
