‘Ashada' season: Start arrangements atop Chamundi Hills, says DC
Deputy Commissioner G. Lakshmikanth Reddy on Wednesday presided over a meeting here to discuss arrangements to be made atop Chamundi Hills during 'Ashada' season when devotees turn up in large numbers to the temple on four Fridays, and during the 'Vardhantotsava' of Goddess Chamundeshwari. The deputy commissioner told the officers to start the preparations ahead of the season with the first Friday falling on June 27. Like every year, the meeting decided not to allow private vehicles atop the hills on the four Fridays and also during the Vardhantotsava to ease traffic congestion. As usual, the vehicles have to be parked on the foothills of Chamundi near Lalitha Mahal helipad and devotees have to travel to the temple in buses. The four Ashada Fridays will be on June 27, July 4, 11 and 18, and the Vardhantotsava will be on July 17. The DC told the police commissioner to make necessary bandobast arrangements for the Fridays and the MCC has been asked to make arrangements for drinking water, and ensure cleanliness. The CESC has been asked to light up 1,000 steps to the hill as devotees climb to reach the hill temple. This is apart from the illumination of the temples atop the hills. The special darshan tickets have been priced at ₹50 and ₹300. Police Commissioner Seema Latkar, MCC Commissioner Sheikh Tanveer Asif and others were present.
