Ganesh Shoba Yatra Day-2

 Took a walk from MJ market Junction to Tank bund to speed up the procession pace by giving appropriate directions . By 5 am , the situation was so much better than last year as the tail end had reached MJ market jn and a few hundred vehicles on the other approach roads , hope to keep the important junctions clear for general traffic by 8 am today !

The entire 25K force of HCP and other units worked continuously in two shifts ( except officers of city police ) throughout the night to expedite the immersion of thousands of idols.

Finally , the curtains fall on this Test Match played over 11 days and the last day’ s play extending beyond 40 hours ! People of South Zone really cooperated and moved their idols early with the result that SZ idols crossed Naya Pul by 10:30 pm . By 6 am important traffic junctions were opened for general traffic and by 10 am the last junctions , Ambedkar and Telugu Talli Secretariat junctions were also opened up . The 1000 idols on trucks were stacked up on necklace road and over the next 5-6 hours the immersion will be done , without any hindrance to normal traffic and life .

I extend my thanks to GHMC and all other government departments for the excellent coordination over the last 11 days . I wished all my officers for working so tirelessly and with such motivation.

DJ s have become a nuisance in all bandobusts and we r wondering how to rein them in. Will let you know soon .
