Speaking on the occasion at the Media Centre, he said, the exhibition has depicted the grandeur of annual brahmotsavams, which are set to start with Dhwajarohanam in the evening on Wednesday.
He said the rare photographs related to Tirumala have shown the legacy and evolution of transportation, queue line system, annaprasadam and laddu prasadam distribution and many more interesting facts. He also appreciated the stalls arranged by the Ayurveda, Forest, and Traditional Sculpture institute and also visited the TTD publications and Agarbatti stall.
The Chairman praised the TTD Garden department for coming up with unique mythological themes, including Ghatotkacha, Bakasura, Surasa, Droupadi Swayamvaram, and many colourful floral displays, as well as the giant Garuda carrying the Ananda Nilaya Vimana Venkateswara in Sand Art moulded by the artist Ms Gouri from Bengaluru.
Later, he appreciated and thanked the services of Tirumala Media for projecting the glory of Sri Venkateswara Swamy in a commendable way. He asked them to bring any negative issues to his notice so that they could try to find a solution to the issue instead of magnifying it for sensation. He wished with the benign blessings of Sri Venkateswara, let everyone cherish the grand event of the annual brahmotsavams.
Board members Panabaka Lakshmi, Janaki Devi, Shantaram, Naresh Kumar, Janga Krishnamurthy, Chief PRO Dr T Ravi, Garden Deputy Superintendent Srinivasulu, Dr Renu Dixit, Principal SV Ayurvedic College, Venkat Reddy of SV Traditional Sculpture Institute were also present.
