Action would be taken against those found violating the rules, once the festival concluded, he said.

The warning comes amid videos circulating on social media that purportedly show police stopping processions over songs associated with BRS president and former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao.

Police, however, have maintained that their focus is on preventing vulgar and provocative content and maintaining law and order during the Ganesh idol immersion festivities.
