Maddur: Maddur has returned to calm this morning after three days of tension following unrest during a Ganesha immersion procession, where miscreants pelted stones. Shops reopened and business activity resumed, even as Police maintained a tight vigil in sensitive areas to prevent any flare-ups.
To restore peace and bring the immersion festivities to a close, a collective Ganesha idol immersion was held last evening under elaborate security arrangements. The event saw the immersion of 18 idols in a coordinated procession.
