New Delhi: The Supreme Court is slated to hear on September 30 a clutch of public interest litigations (PILs) seeking intervention into the alleged presence of animal fat in ghee used for making Tirumala laddus.

According to the cause list published on the Apex Court website, a Bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan will take up the matter for hearing on September 30.

One of the pleas filed by advocate Satyam Singh seeks direction for the constitution of a judicial committee under the chairmanship of a former SC judge or a probe by CBI into the alleged “criminal conspiracy and mismanagement of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) Trust.”

The plea said: “A grave violation of religious customs occurred as investigations revealed disturbing facts that non-vegetarian products, specifically bird meat (kolis), the presence of animal fat, ‘lard’ (pig fat), fish oil and other impurities were used in the preparation of ‘prasadam’.”

“This act not only violates the fundamental tenets of Hindu religious customs but also deeply wounds the sentiments of countless devotees who regard the ‘prasadam’ as a sacred blessing. The gravity of this situation cannot be overlooked, as it strikes at the core of our religious practices and beliefs,” it added.

Further, it said that the recent violation at the Tirumala Tirupati Balaji Temple represents a grave infringement of Article 25 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to freedom of religion.

The petition said that the holy Tirumala Tirupati Temple holds immense spiritual significance for Hindus globally and countless devotees visit the sacred site annually to seek blessings and partake in the divine ‘prasadam‘, believed to carry the Lord Venkateswara’s blessings.

Another plea seeks the appointment of a committee under direct monitoring of the Supreme Court or appointment of a retired SC judge with other experts to conduct an independent inquiry into the allegations of substandard ingredients and animal fat in the ghee in Tirupati Tirumala Temple.
