With Hyderabad gearing up for Ganesh Visarjan, the authorities have tightened security and made traffic arrangements to ensure a safe celebration.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to visit the city on September 6, on the occasion of Ganesh Visarjan, wherein he will participate in the procession as the Chief Guest.

As per the notice issued by the Hyderabad Traffic Police, the main procession route is from Balapur Katta Maisamma Temple to Keshavagiri, Chandrayangutta, Falaknuma Rly Bridge, Aliabad, Charminar, Afzalgunj, Abids, Basheerbagh, Liberty, Ambedkar Statue, NTR Marg, and PVNR Marg (Necklace Road).
