Officials from the ghmc report that this year, 91, 154 idols were submerged in six zones and about 8,424 tonnes of rubbish were removed. The creation of 74 man-made ponds by the local authorities allowed them to prevent the immersion of many idols in them. On the day of the immersion, the sanitation crew continually cleaned the roads while working in three shifts, paying particular attention to the congested areas of Charminar, Begum Bazar, MJ Market, Abids, Basheerbagh, and Liberty Crossroads. They received praise from their followers for their meticulous efforts.Before the event started, the largest problem for ghmc administrators was to limit the usage of PoP idols. According to a top ghmc official, "All concerned departments were planning for two months in order to ensure a successful immersion." Stay tuned for more updates.
