From 5 pm to 6 pm, the chopper took off from Begumpet Airport and covered the main procession routes, according to GHMC officials. “The nimajjanam is underway peacefully. Over two lakh idols have been immersed. Under the supervision of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, elaborate arrangements have been made and the immersion is proceeding smoothly,” said Prabhakar.
