Mandu festival of India



Mandu festival of India is dedicated to the elephant-headed God, Ganesha, believed to bring good fortune to the devotees. Thus, the celebration receives a lot of fan-fare, with people paying their obeisance with feverish zest.

What brings about the differences in their celebration of the two festivals is the amalgamation of tribal elements in Mandu festival.
