Hanumanshoba yatra went off without a hitch

 Hanuman Shoba Yatra procession concluded  peacefully amid tight police security  on Thursday. After participating in the traditional  prayers held at the originating point -   Ram mandir,Gowliguda - City Police Commissioner Mr.CV Anand visited the entire procession stretch in the morning.

In addition to the mobile patrols of Task Force and  L&O wings,  the  contingent of heavily-armed police officers stood along the 12.2km procession route. Thousands of boisterous youngsters on two wheelers took part in the main procession ,  which started at  Rammandir, Gowliguda around  12:30 pm, traversed through   Putlibowli X roads, Andhrabank X roads, Kacheguda X roads in 2 hrs. Enroute the teams of plainclothes officers  mixed unobtrusively.

CP CV Anand  monitored the situation through the visuals broadcast by the drones and CCTVs along the multiple routes in the joint command control center  where senior officials of RTC, R&B, GHMC, EMRI, Fire, Electricity departments were present. 

Enroute 171 tributary processions originated from different parts of City limits , 50 processions from Cyberabad and Rachakonda commissionerates converged in the main procession at different intersections manned by large posse of police force. Hampered by the persistent drizzle, all processions moved at sluggish pace for 2-3 hrs and regained  momentum towards the dusk. Nevertheless, the Traffic Police peered the volumes and ensured smooth flow of traffic through out the day, a challenging task on a working day.

Finally one long  procession culminated at Hanuman Temple, Tadbund .

“In view of the disturbances all over the country , the City Police  mined its data, last year experiences, current happenings  for all the intelligence it can glean.” Said Mr.Anand..

 “I am thankful to the general public, organisers.” he added.
