In a bid to protect almost 17 lakh devotees, who will be arriving in Mumbai from across India for Ganesh Chaturthi, the Brihanmumbai Sarvajanik Ganeshostsav Samanvay Samiti (BSGSS) is ensuring property security measures are taken to ensure their safety. These preparations are being made in light of the terror attacks with vehicles, the most recent of which occurred in Barcelona, Spain in which several pedestrians were run over. Similar attacks have taken place in Berlin and London.
