Hyderabad is preparing for the Ganesh Shobha Yatra amidst forecasted rain. The municipal corporation and other departments are taking measures to ensure that the devotees face no inconvenience during the procession. The GHMC has directed officials and emergency teams to clear water stagnation points in the city. Organizers and participants are advised to take precautions and plan according to weather updates. It is recommended for citizens to stay indoors due to anticipated traffic congestion.
Managing traffic during rainfall is a challenge for the city police, especially during the massive Ganesh Shobha Yatra. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted thunderstorms and lightning in Hyderabad until September 30 and has issued a yellow alert for the city.
