Namaskaram. At least some of you might have learnt recently that animal fat (beef) and fish fat have been used in Tirumala in the ghee used to make the Tirupati Laddu - https://news.tirumala.org/stern-action-against-suppliers-on-low-quality-ghee/

With a heavy heart, I pray humbly to every individual reading this petition. The situation in Tirumala, the dilution of our prayers, the adulteration of maha prasadam, the neglect of Hindu Dharma, the irreverence towards Lord Balaji cannot be ignored any further.

Alongside the hundreds of scared dharmic kshetras in Bharat, Sri Kasi Viswanatha in Varanasi and Sri Venkateswara in Tirumala have a precious role to play in keeping our society rooted to our rich traditions, heritage, and culture.

The failure in Tirumala witnessed through the continued neglect of dharma, and irreverent acts of corruption are not only a failure of the administration. It is a failure of our community to express our devotion with a pure heart and sincere commitment.

I request your wholehearted and prayerful support to this petition. Once we have adequate people sign this petition, I shall personally submit the petition to the government of Andhra Pradesh and the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh to initiate a reverent overhaul of the TTD and its processes. We have to stop treating matters related to the TTD as if it were an administrative body, and begin making long term changes to its constitution and procedures. It is a religious institution, a custodian of the sentiments of millions of devout Hindu piligrims.

The petition is a small effort to reclaim our heritage and cleanse our sinful record of apathy and neglect. Kindly join this journey for demanding remarkable peity with every small detail related to Tirumala, Sri Venkateswara Swamy.
