The Tirupati Connection To Ayodhya Ram Temple

IN the wake of huge rush of devotees thronging Ayodhya to visit newly-consecrated Ram Lalla, Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kheshtra Trust may soon implement the system of queue management evolved by Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) to ensure hassle-free visits for the devotees.

The temple trust of Ayodhya had reached out to the TTD and a team from Tirupati had visited Ayodhya in February to demonstrate their queue management system. The authorities meeting would ensure better management of pilgrims who throng the temple in hordes on a daily basis.

TTD is the official custodian of Sri Venkateswara temple in Tirupati, which has decades of experience in successfully managing thousands of devotees every day.

According to Temple Trust member Dr Anil Mishra, the trust, striving to inculcate a proper crowd management system, is exploring the best possible option while seeking the expertise of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams.
