Ganeshotsav mandals in Mumbai are urging the government to eliminate the Rs 2,000 fine for digging roads to erect mandaps, referencing a previous waiver by then CM Eknath Shinde. They are also requesting the removal of a Rs 1.25 lakh per day fire brigade levy during the Ganesh festival to ease financial burdens. The mandals have highlighted the significance of Ganeshotsav as a state festival, seeking continued support and relaxation in regulations for the celebrations.
