✦AI Summary
Hyderabad celebrated the Ashada Bonalu festival with traditional processions and prayers at local temples. The event saw significant participation from government officials and a notable surge in demand for local meat markets.
The drums began early, the bonams arrived in a bright procession and the streets around Lal Darwaza slowly turned into a moving canvas of turmeric, vermilion, neem leaves and flowers. By evening, the Ashada Bonalu celebrations had given Hyderabad’s Old City its familiar festive pulse, even as large parts of the city appeared unusually quiet.
