The authorities, who have decided to allow symbolic immersion of idols of up to three feet in the tanks on September 27, the day of immersion, still face problems regarding idols more than 10 feet high, AMC sources said on Saturday.
A meeting to this effect was held where district collector Eknath Davle directed the authorities to use whirlpools at Gopalkhed, Kurankhed and Donad villages for immersing idols more than 10 feet high, the sources said.
But the AMC has made no arrangements to this effect citing lack of requisite number of expert swimmers and rafts.
