Hyderabad: A 45-year-old Muslim businessman from Yakutpura, identified as Mohammad Nazeeruddin, purchased the Chandrayangutta Ganesh ladoo for Rs 1.21 lakh in an auction. He believes that if he sprinkles the ladoo power on his fields, his crops will yield better.
Mr Nazeeruddin said, “In 2006, I participated in the Kanchanbagh ladoo auction and purchased it for Rs 11,000. When I sprinkled the ladoo powder on my fields in Bhongir, I got a good yield the next year.”
