Asserting that Sri Venkateswara Swamy is his sentiment, the Honourable CM of AP Sri N Chandrababu Naidu advocated that prosperity and happiness remains where there is the presence Sri Venkateswara Swamy temple.
Speaking to media at Sri Padmavathi Rest House in Tirumala on Friday, the CM of AP recalled his old memories and sentiments associated with the temple and Sri Venkateswara Swamy. “Today I made my grandson also to offer Annaprasada Seva and it gives me immense satisfaction if we can teach good manners and morals to the future generations”, he observed.
“Several reforms were brought during my earlier stint also and I am committed to the cause of protecting the serenity and sanctity of Tirumala and its environs.
During the regime of late Sri NT Rama Rao the Annaprasadam Trust was formed and later followed the Pranadanam Trust. Even the Srivari Seva Voluntary Service has also commenced with a noble aim to render free services to the multitude of devotees with fellow devotees who voluntarily come forward to render Seva. Now we are contemplating to take up the construction of Srivari temples all over the country as well overseas by setting up Sri Venkateswara Alayala Nirmana Nidhi. The funds of SRIVANI Trust will also be utilized for this noble cause in a proper and transparent manner. We have an excellent Temple Eco system in Andhra Pradesh and the ultimate goal of our government is to develop all these temples. Even it was during my earlier regime that the waters from Kalyani Dam were pumped and supplied to Tirumala. So we will ensure that there will be no dearth for water facilities in future also'', he added.
He said that any unholy activities will be prevented in the area adjacent to the Seven Hills. He said that the lands allocated for Mumtaz Hotel, Emaar and Devlok projects near Alipiri will be cancelled. Actions will be taken to protect Srivari properties in the country'', he affirmed.
The CM once again asserted that the employees working in TTD should be Hindus only and measures will be taken accordingly to protect the sentiments. He said that the seven hills are the property of Srivaru, and hence no unholy activities should take place in Tirumala, nor should it be seen with a business attitude.
On revamping of the State the CM said, already it has started from Tirumala which is yielding good results and very recently, the Srinivasa Kalyanam which was held at Amaravathi received humongous response from public before commencing the State Capital works with the divine blessings”, he maintained.
TTD Chairman Sri BR Naidu, EO Sri Syamala Rao, Trust board members, officers and others were also present.
