In this situation, there are a number of important sacred festivals falling in the month of December such as Vaikunta Ekadasi, Vaikunta Dwadasi, The English New Year, and the festivals during the sacred Tamil calendar month of Margazhi. Accordingly, large crowds of devotees are expected to visit Tirupathi on these occasions. Hence TTD has come up with the above cancellation of Darshan offered twice a week for the senior citizens and parents of children below 5 years of age.
