On the occasion of Jyeshtha Pournami, the Indrakeeladri Hill Pradakshina was conducted grandly on Monday amidst the devotion of the devotees. Thousands of devotees participated with the belief that performing the Pradakshina on the full moon day will fulfill their wishes, as all deities including Sri Durgamalleshwara Swamy, Sri Vighneshwara, Sri Subrahmanyaswamy, and Sri Anjaneyaswamy were present.
From the shrine of Sri Kamadhenu Ammavaru on Ghat Road, the chairman of the temple management committee, Borra Radhakrishna (Gandhi) and his wife performed special prayers and initiated the Giri Pradakshina. The Pradakshina proceeded along Ghat Road, Kumari Palem, Vidyadharapuram, Palapactory, Chittinagar, Kottapet, and Brahmanavidi, accompanied by Vedic chants, traditional dances, bhajans, and auspicious musical instruments, and returned to Indrakeeladri.
Along the way, women purified the roads with turmeric water, offered Haratis, and presented coconuts, while the temple provided kumkum and prasadam to the devotees. Members of the management committee, Deputy EO Kishore Kumar, Assistant Commissioner Rangarao, and others participated in the event.
