Tirumala:
Executive officer of TTD, D Sambasiva Rao said pilgrims can book
accommodation online not only in Tirumala but in Tirupati soon. People
can also book kalyana mandapams online across the state, he said. Some
rooms in Srinivasam, Madhavam and Vishnu Nivasam in Tirupati will be
allotted for online booking.
The TTD is
contemplating to launch a Tamil television channel soon as the number of
pilgrims visiting Tirumala from Tamil Nadu is second to those from the
two Telugu states together, the executive officer said.
Within
four days, we will be giving four laddu coupons to each devotee in
Vaikuntham Queue Complex itself, apart from their subsidy laddu, the EO
said while answering a caller from Chittoor.
