India Hindu Goddess

Idols of Hindu Goddess Dashama are pictured on the banks of the river Sabarmati in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad August 9, 2011. Hindu devotees keep the idols in their house for 10 days, for the Dashama festival, before immersing them in the Sabarmati river on the tenth night. Authorities this year have decided to put the idols in a dry well instead of the river to avoid pollution, local media reported. REUTERS/Amit Dave (INDIA – Tags: SOCIETY RELIGION)
