The Hindu community celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi, a ten-day festival, to remove obstacles to life and 
barriers to success. Lord Ganesha is invoked before one starts anything new in life or business. Praveen Jaganath Naik, Trustee, Siddhivinayak Temple, says, “We don’t remember our grandparents'names. But we can never forget the name of Ganesha." Ganesh Chaturthi has its origins at the beginning of Sanatana Dharma, usually known as Hinduism. However, the festival took its present form in 1893 when Lokmanya Tilak, the social reformer, initiated it. “Tilak recognised the wide appeal of Ganesh and popularised Ganesh Chaturthi as a national festival," says Naik. Tilak wanted the festival to facilitate community involvement in the form of intellectual discourse, poetry recitals, plays and concerts at a time when the British rulers prohibited political and social gatherings.
