Several devotees offered prayers at temples here on the occasion of Diwali on Saturday morning.

Devotees were seen at Sai Baba Mandir, Lodhi Road with masks, and practicing social distancing.

"No Prasad is being served or offered at the Mandir. Devotees are following guidelines regarding the pandemic. Thermal screening and stization are being followed at the entry gate of the temple," said the Head Priest at the Sai Baba Mandir.

"There is a dip in the number devotees due to coronavirus pandemic this time. I hope that the pandemic will end soon," he added.

Many people also visited Jhandewalan Mandir and were seen lighting 'diyas' and doing 'Aartis'.
