Overview

Bhoomi Puja for families in Begumpet

Bhoomi Puja is performed on a plot of land before construction starts. It honours Bhoomi Devi (Mother Earth), Vastu Purusha and the directional deities, seeking permission to dig into the land and asking forgiveness for any disturbance to the life it supports.

Begumpet sits between Hyderabad and Secunderabad, a short distance from Hussain Sagar. Along its main road are offices, hotels, showrooms and the old Begumpet airport, while quieter residential colonies such as those around Prakash Nagar lie just off it.
