Hyderabad: Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) Chairman YV Subba Reddy on Friday inspected the Matrusri Tarigonda Vengamamba Anna Prasadam Bhavan and luggage counter at old Anna Prasadam Complex at Tirumala and instructed officials to improve the quality of service and amenities being provided to devotees.
Talking to media, he said preference is being given for facilitating darshan to the common devotees and Anna Prasadam outlets will be expanded to provide free food for all devotees.
He further said that footfall at Tirumala increased significantly after the recommencement of Sarvadarshanam recently. He directed the departments concerned to take strict measures to distribute snacks and food to the devotees without any hassle.
Devotees from North India will be served bread and chapatis along with meals.
The chairman also brushed aside the allegations regarding the increase in prices of Arjitha Sevas. He said it was unfortunate that some vested interests were distorting the TTD Trust Board’s decision on Arjitha Seva tickets, which was taken to reduce VIP pressure and give more access to common devotees in the temple.
TTD has recently cancelled the VIP break darshan on Saturdays and Sundays to facilitate darshan for more common devotees.
