The formal training of Dasara elephants for Jamboo Savari will begin here from Sunday and the elephants which arrived here from their respective camps on August 7 will be marching till Bannimantap along the procession route to get themselves acclimatised to the surroundings.
The elephants had not stepped out of the palace for training when they had come here for Dasara the last two years as the procession was confined to the palace surroundings in view of low-key festivities owing to the pandemic.
With the celebrations going grand this year, the procession will be on the usual 5-km-long route from the palace to Bannimantap.
