Lakshmi, the caparisoned elephant carrying the sacred portrait of Goddess Mahakali, led the traditional Ambari procession during Lashkar Bonalu in Secunderabad. Hundreds of devotees gathered along the route as cultural performances and strict safety measures marked the annual religious event.
The Telangana Jagruti president urges the government to release funds and permit traditions for Muharram, criticises the denial of the elephant procession and calls for smooth observance of the religious occasion
