In a letter addressed to the Hyderabad Commissioner, Raja Singh said that in recent years, he has witnessed certain individuals with malicious intent joining the processions, creating a nuisance by engaging in inappropriate activities.
“There have been incidents where people, sitting on tuskers (trucks) drink alcohol openly and throw water packets at public, often targeting women in particular. The harassment of women and girls had unfortunately become an issue that tarnishes the sanctity of the celebrations. Such behaviour is deeply disrespected and disrupts the spiritual significance of the festival,” Raja Singh complained.
