MLC Helps Clear Traffic During Ganesh Immersion Congestion
Traffic became very crowded on Sripuram Road during a Ganesh immersion programme.
The immersion had been delayed because of heavy rain the night before.
Many Ganesh idols were brought for immersion on Wednesday morning.
This caused problems for people driving on the road.
MLC Kuchukulla Damodar Reddy was also stuck in the traffic.
He got out of his vehicle and helped direct the vehicles.
He then brought a traffic police officer to the area.
With the officer’s help, traffic returned to normal.
