Puri: International sand sculptor Manas Kumar Sahoo has created a 15-feet wide sand sculpture of Lord Ganesh at Puri Lighthouse Beach on the occasion of Ganesh Puja. He used 15-ton sand for the sculpture.
Lord Ganesh is worshiped everywhere as Vighnaharta. Manas has created sand art by placing Lord Ganesh in his sand art with the aim of removing disturbances from all over the world and establishing peace.
Manas wishes to Lord Ganesh that the atmosphere of war be removed in the world, an atmosphere of friendship be created in all countries, and peace be established throughout the world.
