About Maharashtra
Maharashtra is the beating heart of modern public Ganesh worship — home to the Ashtavinayak circuit of eight self-manifested Ganapati shrines, three of the twelve Jyotirlingas (Bhimashankar, Trimbakeshwar, Grishneshwar), and the Warkari pilgrimage tradition centred on Vitthala at Pandharpur. Shirdi Sai Baba and Shani Shingnapur draw millions annually from across Bharat.
