Improvement in the quality of the Tirupati Laddoo : Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu

Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu

Tirupati (Andhra Pradesh) – Andhra Pradesh Chief Minster Chandrababu Naidu said “Several people expressed happiness saying that they were satisfied (with laddoo quality)”. He was speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the ‘Vakkulmath’ the central kitchen established at the ‘Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam’.

Naidu said,

IIT will be consulted if necessary for establishing a laboratory for examining the quality of the ingredients of the Prasad laddoos.

The CM’s remarks came amid recent allegations of the CM and TTD Executive Officer that adulterated ghee was used in making laddoo prasadam during the previous YSR Congress regime. We have seen several incidents (during the previous regime) of people expressing dissatisfaction over the quality of laddoo in Tirumala Hills. They agitated on that issue which is not auspicious. Those issues were ignored previously.

Chief Minister held a meeting with TTD officials and directed them to ensure that there is no compromise in the quality of ingredients used for making Prasadams.

Asserting that the present regime won’t tolerate any impurity issues, he said the TTD was committed to protecting the sanctity of Shri Balaji.

Editorial Perspective

The Government should suspend and take strict legal action against those responsible for the contamination of the prasad laddoos.
