A day after an altercation between the cops and warkaris- the devotees of Lord Vitthal- outside a temple at Alandi in the Pune district of Maharashtra triggered a row, the procession of palanquins is progressing smoothly in coordination with police, devotees and trustees on Monday, the PTI reported.

A senior police officer told the PTI that the 'palkhis' (palanquins) of Sant Dnyaneshwar Maharaj (from Alandi) and Sant Tukaram Maharaj (from Dehu) that set out on Sunday evening are expected to reach the Pune city later in the day on Monday.
