Heavy rush in Sabarimala

Sabarimala: With hardly a day left for the sighting of Makarajyoti and the celestial star Makara, Sabarimala Sannidhanam and the surrounding forest areas turned into a sea of humanity by Sunday evening.

Ayyappa devotees from various parts of South India have been camping at Sabarimala and the base camps around the holy hillock for Makaravilakku on Monday.

Rooftops of almost all buildings at the Sannidhanam have been occupied.

Pilgrims have pitched tents on hillsides in the forests, from where they can have Makarajyoti darshan.

A multitude of pilgrims have been camping at Pulmedu, Pandithavalam, the Sannidhanam, Pampa hilltop, Nilackal and Attathode for darshan.
