Residents of Tisgaon village in Kalyan (East) will have to look for another lake to immerse Ganesha idols this year. Devotees had been performing immersions in the lake behind Tisai Devi temple for the past 20 years. We don’t want to carry out immersion in the lake after the last year’s incident. This lake is a private one and is looked after by the mandal, which plans to beautify it this month. Meanwhile, the mandal plans to prepare an artificial pond in the village for immersion.
