The Vizianagaram district administration is making elaborate arrangements for Sri Pydimamba temple’s celestial procession, Sirimanotsavam, to be celebrated on October 19 this year. ‘Tholellu utsavam’, will also be celebrated on October 18, one day before the procession in which normally two lakh people participate every year.
With the spread of COVID-19, devotees were not directly allowed to participate in the procession. The government has not yet taken any decision over the participation of the people in the procession although it had conducted a meeting with representatives of various organisations.
