Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): The 1st sawari of Lord Mahakal during Agahana month will be taken out on Monday following the age-old tradition. The Sawari will be taken out on the traditional routes.
Large number of devotees would participate in the procession as the state government relaxes curbs following drop in the Covid19 cases. To give grandeur to the ride, preparations continued on the sawari route. While local police and administration have geared up for the event in view of crowd and traffic management in the city.
