It has a history of centuries. It is a family tradition of this farmer from Urdigere to make pettakols' and sell them on Ganesh Chaturthi. They are doing it inspite of #COVID19 and a full market.

It is such traditions which has kept our culture alive.

Kids take this Pettakol, visit 21 houses with Ganesha , make a 'Pop' sound using 'Gowri Kai' and say 'Vidya Ganapathi ki Jai' and ask for blessings.

Hope this Corona ends soon and the world returns to normalcy.
