Ganesh immersion finale to take over Hyderabad roads on Friday

A sea of Ganesh idols, trucks and devotees will take over Hyderabad’s roads on the final day of immersion on Friday, with the main procession travelling from Balapur through Old City and central Hyderabad before reaching Tank Bund.

From Balapur, the procession will travel through Keshavagiri, Chandrayangutta, Falaknuma, Aliabad, Nagulchinta, Charminar, Madina, Afzalgunj, M.J. Market, Abids, Basheerbagh and Liberty before reaching the immersion points along NTR Marg and PVNR Marg.

Processions from Secunderabad, Uppal, Dilsukhnagar, Tarnaka, Tolichowki, Mehdipatnam, Erragadda, Tappachabutra, Asifnagar, Kulsumpura, Jiyaguda, Attapur, Aramghar, Kamatipura and Bahadurpura will feed into the main route or head towards the immersion areas through designated corridors.

For commuters, that means a large part of central Hyderabad will effectively belong to the procession for much of Friday and into Saturday morning.
