Overview
Aksharabhyasam, known in the North as Vidyarambh Sanskar, is the ceremony that marks the beginning of a child’s education. The child is seated on a parent’s lap and, guided by the Pandit, writes their first letters, often Om and the first letters of the alphabet, on a slate or in a plate of rice.
Malakpet lies on the southern side of the Musi, known for its racecourse, its market streets and a station on the MMTS line. Older family houses, small apartment buildings and shops share the same lanes, and the neighbourhood runs into Dilsukhnagar and Chaderghat at either end.
