Darshan for The Aged and Physically Challenged from 9th April

 

 The online quota for the month of April for the physically challenged and aged people will be release by TTD on April 8 at 11 am.

 

This category of darshan was dispensed with by TTD a couple of years ago following Covid Pandemic. As the situation now turned to normalcy, the darshan for the aged, differently-abled and devotees suffering from chronic diseases is set to resume from April 9 onwards.

 

However, the pilgrims falling under this category have to book in online to avoid the inconvenience of darshan. On Fridays they will be provided darshan at 3pm while remaining days at 11 am.

 

The devotees are requested to make note of this.

 

ANGAPRADAKSHINA:

 

TTD has also announced the postponement of the issuance of Angapradakshinam tokens from April 2 instead of March 31 following technical and administrative reasons.

 

The devotees will be allowed for Angapradakshinam from April 3 onwards. The tokens will be issued on April 2 at 2pm in the counters at PAC 1 in Tirumala. Every day 750 tokens will be issued.

 

On Fridays no Angapradakshinam due to Abhishekam and tokens will not be issued on Thursdays.

House Sites to TTD Employees in Three Months

 

 TTD Chairman Sri YV Subba Reddy on Thursday said the credit for fulfilling 30 year long pending aspirations of TTD employees for owning house sites in Tirupati goes to the Honourable CM of AP Sri YS Jaganmohan Reddy.

 

Accompanied by the local MLA Sri Bhumana Karunakar Reddy he handed over a cheque for ₹61.63 crore towards land cost to Chittoor District Collector Sri Hari Narayan on Thursday evening at Sri Padmavati rest house.

 

Speaking on the occasion the TTD Chairman said that upon the request of local MLA Sri B Karunakar Reddy and state minister Sri P Ramachandra

Reddy besides his personal request the AP CM had responded favourably and directed officials to identify land for house sites free of cost and expedite the matter.

 

The officials identified the land of 300.22 acres in survey no 42 of Padiredu forest village suitable for house sites for 5518 TTD employees but anticipating objections the TTD board was advised to pass a resolution to that effect.

 

The TTD chairman said the house sites were decided way back in 2008 October and in 2010 July dips were conducted on seniority basis for allotment of house sites and apartments.

 

However the issue was raised in Supreme Court and to ensure against legal hurdles the TTD board advised employees to set up a model house building society, he said.

 

He said since it was difficult for employees to pay up such huge amount the TTD board has made the goodwill payment for sake of employees and the employees were expected to reimburse the amount to TTD as per rules and regulations.

 

He said on behalf of the employees the TTD would take possession of the land and commence the development works and soon the house sites would be allocated to the employees.

 

Sri B Karunakar Reddy, Tirupati MLA said in view of legal hurdles and even though the AP CM desired to allot cost free housing sites to TTD employees a nominal amount shall be collected on allotment.

 

He urged the TTD employees not to cut across issues and ensure to get housing plots at earliest and commence house-building activities.

 

The TTD employees conveyed their heartfelt gratitude and thanks to TTD Chairman Sri YV Subba Reddy, minister Sri P Ramachandra Reddy, MLA Sri B Karunakar Reddy, TTD board member Sri P Ashok Kumar, TTD EO Dr KS Jawahar Reddy, TTD JEOs Smt Sada Bhargavi, Sri Veerabrahmam for achieving their 3 decade long aspirations to own houses in Tirupati.
