Sarvadarshan (free darshan) at Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) can be resumed only after the World Health Organisation (WHO) denotifies the Covid-19 pandemic. This was informed by TTD specified authority chairman and executive officer (EO) Dr KS Jawahar Reddy, on Saturday.
Addressing the pilgrim callers during the monthly ‘Dial your EO’ programme at the TTD administrative building here, Jawahar Reddy said the temple administration was forced to impose curbs on inflow of pilgrims due to the pressing situation.
“We are forced to issue only limited darshan tokens. However, the TTD has increased the special entry darshan tickets quota to 8,000 tickets a day from 5,000 ,” the EO said.
“Pilgrims can register complaints at 9989078111 and before their departure from Tirumala, their grievances will be resolved,” Jawahar Reddy added. About 5.32 lakh devotees visited the temple in July.
