ELEPHANT TURNS RESTLESS DURING RELIGIOUS PROCESSION IN HYDERABAD

A brief tense situation prevailed during a Gyarvi Sharif procession in the Old City of Hyderabad after an elephant accompanying the procession became restless and experienced difficulty moving, prompting organisers to temporarily halt the event on Friday, November 13.

• The elephant, Maneka, was brought from Kalaburagi district in Karnataka. Shortly after the procession began, the animal showed signs of discomfort and did not move properly, resulting in a minor disturbance.
