Mysuru/Mysore: After partying hard all night at various watering holes in city, devotees thronged temples across the city from the early hours on the first day of the New Year (first day of the Decade) to offer prayers. Sanctum sanctorum of temples was opened as early as 5 am to enable the public to have darshan.
Special Abhishekas were performed to the presiding deities and thousands of devotees waited in long queues to have darshan since early morning. Long queues were also spotted in front of Churches. Masses were organised at many Churches where devotees prayed for a better year.
