The Green Place of Worship award to the temple, acknowledging the renovation of Yadagirigutta undertaken by the State government and respecting the sentiments and religious traditions of the people was proof of the glory of the renaissance of Indian spirituality, he said, adding that it was a big honour for the State government that the Indian Green Building Council had appreciated the modernization work undertaken by the State without distracting the sanctity and godliness of the Yadadri Temple.
