Police said that the area locals informed the temple authorities in the Prabhu Mandir area of Sadasivpet about the damage to the Ganesh idol inside the temple. “We have taken their statements and booked a case under the relevant sections of the BNS Act. Efforts are on to access the CCTV camera footage in the vicinity to gather evidence on the persons behind the alleged vandalism,” said the police.
