No More Sale Or Auction of TTD Assets - TTD Board Chief







Tirumala, 28 May 20: The TTD Board has decided that hereafter not to dispose of in any manner the immovable properties donated by the devotees to TTD, said Trust Board Chief Sri YV Subba Reddy.

After five-hour-long first ever video conference carried out by the TTD Trust Board from Annamaiah Bhavan in Tirumala on Thursday, disclosing this to media persons who came to meet him outside the Meeting Hall, the TTD Chairman said the board has also decided to set up a committee comprising of officials, intellectuals, heads of Hindu religious institutions and devotees soon to study on how to utilize such unviable and encroached properties so as to take appropriate action without hurting the sentiments of the devotees.

The TTD Chairman said, to put an end to the uproar created by a section of media and some vested interests on social media over the sale of unviable, immovable assets which impacted on the sentiments of the devotees, the AP government had issued a GO banning the sale of such assets. The current TTD board has therefore rescinded its decision on the immovable properties, though they were processed by the previous Board of TTD.

Similarly the board meeting also decided to write to state government to constitute an investigation committee either vigilance commission or any other body on the entire episode to bring out actual facts.

Elaborating on other important decisions, the Chairman said, 
TTD is fully geared to commence the Srivari Darshan as soon as they get the instructions from the Government once the lockdown ends.
"Today we have even inspected the VQC compartments, temple, laddu area etc. on how to take forward dashan arrangements to the pilgrims following the social distancing restrictions, once the lockdown ends and we get the green signal from the Government to open up darshan for pilgrims", he maintained. 

He said, TTD will henceforth follow a transparent policy on allotment of Rest Houses and abolish the previous procedure of allotment on nomination basis. "We have instructed the officials to come up with appropriate guidelines to implement the same", he added.

The board has also decided to conduct a comprehensive enquiry on the vested interests who made baseless allegations on the decisions of the TTD board, he said.

Under the instructions of Honourable CM of AP Sri YS Jaganmohan Reddy, who felt an urgent need to have a children's specialty hospital in Tirupati, the board has decided to develop a Children's Hospital on the lines of Niloufer Hospital at Hyderabad which is exclusively meant for child medicare", the Chairman said.
