“We have been deployed at NTR Stadium, managing the crowd and making sure everything runs smoothly as thousands of devotees visit Kotideepotsavam event every day during Karthika Masam.

Over the years, Koti Deepotsavam has grown into one of the most celebrated devotional gatherings in the country. People come from across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and even other states — and it feels good to see Hyderabad come alive with such faith and unity.

When Chief Minister Revanth Reddy Garu announced that Koti Deepotsavam will be recognised as a Telangana State Festival from next year, it felt like a proud moment for all of us — not just for the organisers but for everyone who plays a part in keeping this spiritual celebration safe and peaceful.

During Koti Deepotsavam, our duty hours are long, but the devotion around us keeps us motivated. It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do.”
