Considering the high number of devotees visiting Siddhivinayak temple on Jan 10 which marks Angarki Sankashti Chathurthi, the traffic police have announced temporary restrictions and closure at six roads that fall across Dadar.
“There will be a huge congregation of devotees at Shree Siddhivinayak Temple, Prabhadevi. It will affect traffic on the roads falling in the vicinity of the temple. Hence, it’s necessary to make an order for traffic management,” said the order released on Friday by Deputy Commissioner of Police Raj Tilak Roushan (Traffic).
