While the city eagerly awaits the main event, many devotees have already begun immersing their idols, with smaller processions filling the streets over the past few days.

Advocate Venu Madhav’s petition argued that the State government had flagrantly violated court orders prohibiting the immersion of idols, particularly Plaster of Paris (POP) idols, at Tank Bund.

The advisory further urged that volunteers must be present at all times, and unlawful activities, including gambling and alcohol consumption, are strictly prohibited

The current water level in the lake was recorded at 513.60 metres against the Full Tank Level (FTL) of 514 metres.

As heavy rains lashed the city since Saturday, the water level at Hussain Sagar steadily rose, eventually exceeding its capacity.

Authorities who have been monitoring the water levels have released 1,600 cusecs downstream.

As against a full tank level of 513.41, on Saturday morning, the water level rose to 513.53.
