However, many devotees choose to perform Visarjan only on the last day of Ganesh puja or Ganeshotsav, which is 6 September, with some continuing into early 7 September.

Ganesh Visarjan Significance

Since the Ganesh puja concludes on Anant Chaturdashi, devotees bid farewell to the deity with honour and devotion. Before immersing the idol, the Uttarpuja (concluding ritualistic worship) is performed.

Uttarpuja means bidding farewell to Lord Ganesha with due reverence, in which haldi and kumkum are offered to the deity. Other than that, an aarti is also performed, and the worship concludes by offering the lord with mantrapushpanjali (floral offerings with chants).
