Anant Chaudas is the last day of
Ganesh Chaturthi. The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi ends with the removal of Ganesh idols from pandals, homes and prayer rooms. On the night of Anant Chaudas, large processions are taken out and the idols of
Lord Ganesh are immersed in water. The festival usually falls around the month of August or September. It is also a holy day for Jains. On this day, Jains perform
puja to the
tirthankars at temples and fast in order to purify themselves.
