Overview
Ganga Puja for families in Uppuguda
Ganga Puja is the worship of Goddess Ganga, honoured as a mother who purifies and gives life. In Varanasi, where the river turns north along the ghats, Ganga Puja is part of daily life, and families come from across the world to offer prayers on her banks.
Uppuguda sits right beside Lal Darwaza and Chatrinaka in the southern old city, with a railway station on the line running from Kacheguda to Falaknuma. It is a dense, lived in neighbourhood of older houses, small shops and community temples.
वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥
Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.

Ganga Puja Traditions in Hyderabad
- Ganga Dussehra falls in May or June, among the hottest weeks of the Hyderabad year; an early morning muhurtham is more comfortable for elders.
- Keep sealed Gangajal ready before the day. Families often use water brought back from Kashi or Haridwar; bottled Gangajal is also sold in puja stores in the city.
- City lakes such as Hussain Sagar are not suitable for floating lamps. Many families do the deep daan at home instead, floating a diya in a brass urli or basin of water mixed with a little Gangajal.
- Basara and Bhadrachalam are several hours' drive from Hyderabad and have their own priests; PujaKarma does not arrange Pandits there. During Godavari Pushkaralu, held once in twelve years, both places see very large crowds.
- If you want the puja on the Ganga, PujaKarma arranges Pandits in Varanasi, so the ghat puja can be booked from Hyderabad.
