Mistake Was Made’: Tirumala Temple Board Holds ‘Purification Ritual’ In

The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) board, which manages the Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Tirupati, has conducted a “purification ritual” in the temple’s kitchens amid a controversy over the quality of Tirupati laddoo. The ritual was held after a video went viral, showing a worker allegedly using a dirty hand to touch the laddoo.

The TTD board has issued a statement saying that the incident was a “mistake” and that strict action will be taken against the employee involved. They have also assured devotees that the quality of the laddoo is not compromised and that the ritual was held as a precautionary measure.

The Tirupati laddoo is a popular prasad (offering) from the temple and is known for its taste and quality. The controversy has raised concerns about the hygiene and safety standards maintained by the TTD board.
