२१ सप्टेंबर १९९५ रोजी मुंबईत गणपतीची मूर्ती दूध पीत असल्याची चर्चा सुरू झाली आणि या घटनेचं लोण देशभर पसरल सुबईत गणपतीच्या मूर्ती दूध पीत आहेत असं मानून देशभर घरोघरी आणि मंदिरामंदिरात गणपतीच्या मूर्तीना दूध पाजण्याचा 'उपक्रम' केला गेला आणि आपण एका दैवी चमत्काराचे साक्षीदार आहोत, असा समज देशभरातील कोट्यवधी लोकांनी करून घेतला. रामरतीची मूर्ती दूध पीत आहे ही गोष्ट शुभसूचक आहे, असं मानलं गेलं आणि आता कलियुगाचा अंत जवळ आला आहे, असाही दावा केला गेला. या घटनेची सुरुवात मुंबईतील एका गणेशमंदिरात झाली. नेहमीप्रमाणे गणपतीची पूजा करणाऱ्या एका भाविकाने चमच्यातील दूध गणपतीसमोर भरलं आणि पाहता पाहता चमच्यातील दूध गायब झालं, अशी त्याची धारणा झाली. मग ही बातमी त्याच्यापुरती उरली नाही. ही बातमी वान्यासारखी पसरली नि आधी मुंबईत, मग महाराष्ट्रात, त्यानंतर देशभर आणि त्यानंतर जगभरात मरतल्या हिंदू घरामध्ये गणपतीला दूध पाजण्याचा सोहळा सुरू झाला. जिकडे-तिकडे मंदिरात रांगा लागल्या. महाराष्ट्राचे तत्कालीन मुख्यमंत्री मनोहर जोशी हे गणेशभक्त असल्याने त्यांनी गणपती खरोखरच दूध पीत आहे, असा निर्वाळा दिला. त्यांच्या या निर्वाकल्यानंतर महाराष्ट्रात आणि देशभर वादंग निर्माण झालं. महाराष्ट्राच्या मुख्यमंत्र्यांनी वैज्ञानिक सिद्धांन्तांविषयी अनभिज्ञता दाखवल्यामुळे त्यांच्यावर टीकाही झाली.
