Fervor marked the procession of ‘Chinna Sesha Vahanam’ on Monday, the second day of the ongoing annual Navaratri Brahmotsavams.
The processional deity of Lord Malayappa, mounted atop the golden ‘vahanam’ as Lord Badri Narayana, was taken out in a grand procession around the mada streets encircling the hill temple. The festivities drew to a close with the procession of ‘Hamsa Vahanam’.
The town experienced a moderate crowd and over 60,659 pilgrims had the darshan of presiding deity the previous day.
