All the pilgrims to the shrine of Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala will soon be getting one laddu weighing 100 gm as prasadam free when they exit from the temple. Earlier, this facility was available only to VVIPs and trekkers to the temple, while ordinary pilgrims had to purchase the laddus. This was one of the key decisions taken by Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), here Monday.
Chadalavada Krishna Murthy, TTD chairman while speaking to the media said, "We are contemplating introducing a new system for laddu distribution and sale. Each pilgrim will get one laddu weighing 100 gm as prasadam free of cost and more laddus will be sold."
