With a $30 million budget, the
tirumala Tirupathi Desvasthanams (TTD) will erect a
sri venkateswara swamy temple in Siddipet. Recently, a group of
ttd representatives and engineers traveled to
siddipet to inspect the area designated for the temple. T. Harish Rao, the finance
minister, engaged with representatives of the
ttd Engineering department by teleconference on
thursday as the temple's design was being prepared.
According to Harish Rao, Lord Venkateshwara is revered throughout the nation. The
minister spoke on the temple's design and the sanctorum, saying that it was fortunate to have a
ttd temple on
siddipet soil. He also provided some recommendations after speaking with subject-matter specialists. Rao advised them to construct a precise replica of the
tirumala temple in
siddipet and further instructed them to leave enough space around the Prakaram so that pilgrims may do pradakshinas.
The
minister requested all amenities for pilgrims on the temple's property and plans for laying the temple's foundation at the upcoming Sravana Masam. On six acres of land close to
siddipet, the
temple will be constructed.
