On the occasion of the 40th Death Anniversary of the multi-talented scholar, Sri Sadhu Subramania Shastri, his life-size bronze statue at SVETA Bhavan was garlanded in Tirupati on Friday.

 

Speaking on the occasion, SVETA Director Dr Ramanjula Reddy said working as Peishkar of Srivari temple, Sri Shastri as an epigraphist translated the copper plate inscriptions of Tirumala and brought the interesting facts related to Tirumala temple to the public.

 

He said TTD pays tributes to Shastri every year on his Vardhanti for his great contributions of spreading the glory of Sri Venkateswara worldwide by translating the Srivari temple inscriptions.

 

His daughter Smt Sadhu Girija Devi said it was a memorable event that TTD celebrates her father's death anniversary in a grand manner in recognition of his unique services every year.

 

The SVETA Director felicitated Smt. Girija Devi and grandson Judge Sri CN Murthy with Srivari Prasadam. Prominent scholar Dr Mylavarapu Srinivasa Rao and SVETA staff others were also present.
