Geared Up to Provide Comfortable Vahana Seva to Three Lakh Devotees on Garuda Seva - TTD Eo

TTD EO Sri AV Dharma Reddy on Thursday said that TTD had made elaborate arrangements for Srivari Garuda Seva Darshan on October 1.

He said as many as 2.75 to 3 lakh devotees could be provided  Garuda Vahana Seva. The EO also said TTD has organised a special queue system in front of MTVAC to provide Vahana darshan for devotees.

Since September 27 daily 55,000 to 65,000 devotees had Srivari Darshan and the numbers expected to increase from Thursday onwards and TTD is geared to accommodate the rush of devotees with extensive arrangements in Anna Prasadam etc.
