Ganesh Idol Immersions Begin in Hyderabad with Security and Traffic Measures
The immersion of Ganesh idols, including the 69-ft Khairatabad idol, took place across Hyderabad and Telangana on September 25, 2026, marking the end of Vinayaka Chaviti festivities. The Khairatabad procession started with a delay due to welding work, drawing large crowds along a route covering central Hyderabad. Authorities deployed around 30,000 police personnel, CCTV cameras, drones, and traffic restrictions to manage security and crowd control. Multiple immersion points and designated corridors facilitated the event, with traffic curbs expected until September 26.
