TIRUMALA: Thousands of devotees witnessed the procession of `Chinna Sesha Vahanam' organised on the second day of the ongoing nine-day annual Brahmotsavams of Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala.

The processional deity of Lord Malayappa Swamy mounted atop the five- hooded golden `Chinna Sesha Vahanam' was taken around the mada streets of the holy shrine in a grand procession this morning.

In the afternoon `Snapana Thirumanjanam' (celestial bath) was performed to Lord Malayappa and his two divine consorts inside the temple complex.

Later in the evening, the procession of `Hamsa Vahanam' was organised.

The Lord playing veena seated atop the Hamsa Vahanam was a feast to the eyes of the devotees who gathered there.
