Hyderabad is going to witness high security and increased overnight patrolling in various areas of the city on Wednesday.
The reason behind the increased security arrangements is the Maha Shivaratri festival, which will be celebrated in the city today.
As the police have geared up to ensure a safe and smooth celebration of the festival, they have beefed up security in various areas with a special focus on major temples.
In view of the festival, a large number of devotees will visit the Shiva temples in the city.
