Kasaba Ganapati is the first Ganapati idol to be honored for Pune. The Kasaba Ganapati Utsav is celebrated without `gulal` (vermilion). Shivaji Maharaja`s mother Rajmata Jijabai had put up the statue.
In her honour, Dadoji Kondadev had put up a tent in front of the idol. Whenever a wedding is in hand, the first invitation is given to this Ganesh. Since 1894, the Mandal of this temple are the first in processions.
