The Hon'ble Chief Secretary to Government govt. of A.P. Hyderabad.
Respected Sir,
Sub:- Thirumala Thirupathi Temple – e-tickets – Vykunta Ekadashi at Thirumala – Issue
of e- tickets / TTD DistrictCounters – Allotment of 30, 000/- of e-darshan
ticketsthrough TTD District Counters in the state and allotment of Accommodation
–Release On before 10th November-15. Requested – Regarding.
I would like to bring to the kind notice of your honour that the E.O. Thirumala has
issued announcement in respect of Special Arrangements for Vaikunta Ekadasi in
Thirumala stating that the VIPs will be allowed for Darshan on the occasions of December
21 and 22 of 2015 for both Darshan and accommodation and they should bring minimum
six members from his or her family.
In this regard, I submit the following facts in respect of the allotment of e-tickets / TTD
District Counters.
* The pilgrims will arrive to Thirumala on the eve of Vykunta Ekadasi nearly 6 to 8 Lakhs.
And the accommodation provided nearly only one lakh people for darshan and the
remaining may not have any chances for getting darshan.
* If the tickets may be issued through TTD Counters/ On-line,
The people will make their convenience to arrive at Thirumala, if
They get tickets otherwise they may not come and suffer by
Arriving at Thirumala, if tickets are not available.
* The Shirdi Sai Sansthan is providing many facilities in each part
such as allotment of e-tickets, darshan tickets and accommodations, which is under
control of the Maharastra Samsthan Board. And in out Andhra Pradesh, the Thirumala is
taken first place in the world and many people from all over the world may present at
Thirumala on the Eve of Vykunta Ekadashi. Due to low cadre officers who are providing
facilities to only their relatives and VIPs only, we are getting many problems in each path.
I humbly request to take suitable Orders before of 10th November-2015; against E.O.
and J.E.O. Thirumala for issuing these kind of announcements even after repeated incidents
and for allotment of darshan tickets through On-line and TTD Centers at least up to 30, 000
before the eve for which act of kindness may facilitate lakhs of pilgrims, who will arrive from
faraway places of the country.
Yours faithfully,
(K.V. RAJAIAH)
