To our Honorable Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, every instituion is meant to be used for his personal aggrandisement including sacred places of worship such as Tirumala.
After he became CM, one of the first things he did was to set up an Heritage outlet at Tirumala temple.
When people are dying of the sweltering heat, he directs Collectors to give buttermilk to them but only Heritage Buttermilk. And now for the Mahanadu in Tirupati, public welfare has completely gone for a toss.
Footpaths have been painted yellow. Lighting arrangements have been made near SVIMS which is very close to Mahanadu venue.
The compound walls of Government Maternity Hospital and Ayurvedic college were demolished to extend the road for the convenience of Mahanadu.
The arches in the temple town which are supposed to invite the pigrims for Brahmotsavams are now inviting the people for Mahanadu. And all this is not being done by the municipal corporation of Tirupati but by the TTD.
Even if the municipal coproration did it, it would be wrong because Mahanadu is a private event of the TDP, not a government event.
The TTD is run on the donations made by devotees. Such donations are now being used for a political part's event. People don't donate money to TTD for serving the TDP. But alas, in Naidu's regime, even God has to bow down before him.
Lord Venkateswara, please do not get angry with the people of AP for it is not their fault.
