Since March last week, Tirumala temple too is closed for devotees. Yet the TTD officials haven’t stopped the daily rituals to Lord Venkateswara and the latest update is TTD is planning to allow devotees post the end of the fourth lockdown.
In an interview, TTD chairman Subba Reddy shared many details post the lockdown situation at Tirumala. Subba Reddy added that once the government permits darshan for people, we shall implement social distancing in queue lines.
Generally on a usual day about 80,000 people to one lakh people visit Tirumala and take darshan. On this Subba Reddy said, post lockdown we will allow only five to ten thousand people. For this we will do a trial darshan with one thousand TTD employees.
The TTD chairman also revealed about the revenue details of the board. Tirmala makes approximately Rs 200 crore a month through Hundi collection and Subba Reddy accepted that the revenues have dipped but he expressed confidence that TTD will come out of this and things would be normal.
