Spiritual ecstasy marked the Ganesh idol immersion ceremony, which remained largely peaceful and incident-free, thanks to the collective efforts put in by the Vinayaka festival committee members, city administrators, revenue and traffic police wings.
MLA B. Karunakar Reddy, who participated in a special puja offered to the deity installed on the Municipal Corporation of Tirupati (MCT) premises on Sunday, complimented Mayor R. Sireesha and Commissioner Anupama Anjali for setting an example for other civic bodies in the State by ensuring peaceful conduct of the immersion ceremony.
