TIRUPATI, OCTOBER 27, 2026: Complimenting the officers and employees of all TTD departments towards the successful conduct of the annual and Navaratri Brahmotsavams of Sri Venkateswara at Tirumala, TTD EO Sri M Ravichandra attributed the achievement to the enthusiastic and coordinated teamwork of everyone.
Reviewing the departmental performance during a meeting held at the conference hall of TTD Administrative Building in Tirupati on Tuesday, the EO said the seamless coordination among departments had enabled TTD to provide better facilities to devotees and ensure the smooth conduct of the Vahana Sevas and Moolavirat darshan.
Devotee satisfaction remains the guiding principle:
Addressing the officials, Sri Ravichandra said minor difficulties reported during the initial days of the Brahmotsavams were promptly identified and resolved.
He appreciated the sustained efforts of officers and staff in improving services and ensuring a satisfactory experience for devotees.
He particularly appreciated the Garden and Electrical Departments for the attractive floral decorations and illuminations arranged within the temple premises and across Tirupati city.
These arrangements, he said, enhanced the festive ambience and drew appreciation from devotees.
Quality services across all Departments:
The EO commended the Annaprasadam Department for serving quality food to lakhs of devotees during the mega festivals. He also appreciated the security personnel for their alertness and efficient performance, and the Health Department for maintaining high standards of cleanliness and sanitation in Tirumala.
He acknowledged the valuable services rendered by the Kalyanakatta, Medical, Transport, Accommodation and Forest Departments.
The exhibitions organised during the Brahmotsavams to educate and engage devotees were also appreciated as a special attraction.
Advance planning for timely execution:
Noting that the Engineering Department had completed essential works required by various departments within the stipulated time, the EO directed officials to prepare comprehensive advance action plans to prevent delays in civil, water supply, electrical and other engineering works during future festivals.
He further instructed the Marketing Department to plan the procurement of raw materials at least 90 days in advance.
Emphasising preparedness, inter-departmental coordination and continuous monitoring, he called for continuous improvement in the quality of services extended to devotees.
Appreciation for Sevaks, Volunteers and SVBC:

He observed that SVBC had effectively enabled crores of devotees, who could not visit Tirumala, to witness the Vahana Sevas through its live telecasts.
He advised the channel to further enhance broadcast quality and introduce more engaging programmes during the next Brahmotsavams.
Cultural performances reflects National Heritage:
