Only five elephants will be participating in the Jamboo savari.

This year too general public will not be allowed to witness the grand celebration. However, the celebration will be telecast live on Facebook and YouTube.

Dasara procession is likely to last for 45 minutes and it will start at 4.36pm after traditional Nandi Dhwaja pooja.
