K. Laxman, national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) OBC Morcha and Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) called for a thorough investigation into alleged irregularities and corruption in Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) that took place during the previous government’s rule in Andhra Pradesh.
Speaking to the media, after the darshan of Lord Venkateswara on Thursday (July 3, 2025), he expressed his concerns against the alleged irregularities which he said had shattered the faith of devotees who generously contribute to the temple’s hundi.
Pointing out various areas of concern, including the preparation of prasadams, purchase of machinery for the Ayurveda pharmacy, laddu quality and Annadanam, he categorically announced that he would be soon addressing a letter to Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, urging him to conduct a detailed inquiry and severely punish the guilty.
