The rush continues unabated and is expected to intensify in the coming days, even after Dasara festivities conclude. District administration, police, municipal and endowment officials are vigilantly overseeing crowd management and monitoring the situation regularly.
Special efforts were made on Moola Nakshatra to ensure smooth darshan for the lakhs of devotees. To meet pilgrims’ drinking water needs, authorities distributed an impressive 35 lakh water bottles over the past eight days.
Additionally, 1,75,000 biscuit packets, 3.6 lakh buttermilk packets, and 6,600 litres of milk have been provided to temple visitors. Around 1,490 municipal workers have been tirelessly working around the clock to keep the premises, queue lines, toilets and roads clean and dust-free.
Meanwhile, on the eighth day, the temple earned Rs 45,56,583 through the sale of laddu prasadam, keshakandana and other sevas.
On the tenth day of the festivities, Wednesday, the goddess is set to appear in her Sri Mahishasura Mardhini Alankaram, continuing the divine celebrations.
