Chairman Inspects Arrangements for Vaikunta Dwara Darshanam

In view of the ensuing ten-day Vaikuntha Dwara Darshan, TTD Chairman Sri YV Subba Reddy has inspected Vaikuntham compartments, SSD queue lines, Old Annaprasadam complex etc. along with TTD Additional EO(FAC) Sri Veerabrahmam on Wednesday evening.

After inspection, he said the focus is to provide Vaikuntha Dwara Darshan to more devotees during these ten days from January 2 to 11. "As such no referrals will be entertained from January 1 to 11  for VIP Break Darshan", he asserted.

The Chairman also said, to avoid long waiting hours in queue lines and compartments, the devotees with SSD tokens and SED tickets have to come to Tirumala on their specified time slots and dates given to them. "In the wake of new guidelines released by Central and State Governments on COVID, the devotees coming for Darshan should wear masks which is mandatory", he maintained. 

"Apart from the Matrusri Tarigonda Vengamamba Annaprasadam Complex (MTVAC) we have decided in the Board meeting to open up two more Annaprasadam Centres. From January 1 onwards, the Old Annaprasadam Complex located opposite Main Kalyana Katta Complex will become operational. Henceforth the devotees need not have to wait for their turn to have Annaprasadam", he added.

Earlier the Chairman also interacted with the devotees about Darshan and other facilities to which they expressed immense pleasure. 

CEO SVBC Sri Shanmukh Kumar, SE 2 Sri Jagadeeshwar Reddy, Health Officer Dr Sridevi, VGO Sri Bali Reddy, Annaprasadam Special Officer Sri Shastry and other officials were also present.
