Thousands of people are expected to witness the 'Jamboo Savari', a march of a dozen caparisoned elephants led by 'Abhimanyu' carrying the idol of Goddess Chamundeshwari, the presiding deity of Mysuru and its royals, on a 750 kg howdah or "Ambari" with gold, later this evening.
The grand procession began with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah along with Deputy CM D K Shivakumar offering pooja to the 'Nandi Dhwaja' (Nandi Flag) from the imposing Amba Vilas Palace premises, at the auspicious Makara Lagna between 1.41 pm to 2.10 pm at the Balarama gate of the palace.
After offering pooja to Nandi Dhwaja, Siddaramaiah greeted the people on the occasion of Vijayadashami.
