Due to rise in COVID-19 cases, there will be no celebration of Adi Perukku festival along the banks of the Cauvery, District Collector S. Sivarasu said on Sunday. The Collector told reporters here that after a lull, fresh cases of COVID-19 had been increasing gradually. It had gone up to 70 from 55 on Saturday. The cases had been rising in a few other districts as well. “Hence, to check the infection and to bring it under control, it has been decided to do away with celebration of Adi Perukku on the banks of the Cauvery”, he said. Similarly, major temples including Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple and Sri Mariamman Temple in Samayapuram will be shut for public darshan on Monday and Tuesday.More Related News
