Sangareddy: The stage is set for the annual Brahmotsavams of the Sri Adi Narayana Swamy temple, known as Telangana Kanchi, located at Kodakanchi village in Jinnaram mandal.

The 10-day annual festivities will start on February 1. Since the temple is just 30 km away from Hyderabad, it would attract a huge number of pilgrims during the Brahmotsavams. The historical temple was built about 1,000 years ago. It regained its past glory after the temple was renovated a few years ago.
