One of the most important festivals of the year for Hindus was marked in Peterborough yesterday.
Hindus celebrated Ganesh Visarjan – which marks the birth of the most important God in their faith, Ganesh at Ferry Meadows.
During the festival, a representation of Ganesh was carried through the park, before being lowered off a bridge and submerged in the water – to symbolise his return to Mother Earth.
