A shocking incident of sacrilege occurred at Tirumala when a group of 28 devotees from Tamil Nadu were found consuming biryani and chicken curry near the temple on the Tirumala hill. The devotees had arrived via the Alipiri Ghat route and were spotted having the food at the Rambhagich Bus Stand. This incident, which occurred in close proximity to the sacred shrine, has raised concerns about security lapses at the site.
Upon receiving complaints from other devotees, the police detained the group for questioning. The incident has sparked outrage, with YSR Congress Party leaders strongly condemning the act. The food consumption near the holy site has been described as highly disrespectful, leading to calls for tighter security and stricter enforcement of rules at the temple.
