00:15Devotees arrived at key temples and along the procession route as early as 5 a.m., many carrying offerings, while volunteers and temple committees prepared the chariots for departure.
00:27The golden chariot carrying the veil departed from the Arulmigu Sri Maha Maryamman Temple on Queen Street at about 6 a.m. and will make its way to Arulmigu Sri Bala Thandayuthapani Waterfall Hilltop Temple on Jalan Kebun Bunga.
00:41It will pass through Chulia Street, Victoria Street, Maxwell Road, Jalan Datuk Keramat and Western Road and is expected to arrive before midnight.
00:52Meanwhile, the silver chariot carrying the statue of Lord Murugan left the Kovil Vidu on Penang Street at 7 a.m.
00:59It followed closely behind the golden chariot on the same route and will end at the Natukotai Chetia Temple at Waterfall.
