The India Meteorological Dept (IMD) has issued warnings for Sabarimala devotees, predicting heavy rains. Heavy rainfall is already affecting areas like Sannidhanam, Pamba, and Nilakkal in Sabarimala. Given that it takes about 8 hours to visit Sabarimala, the Devasthanam Board has been alerted, and arrangements are being made for early darshan to ensure the safety of the devotees.
