Andhra Pradesh News: Amidst the ongoing politics over the Prasad of Tirupati Balaji temple in Andhra Pradesh, a report of the Prasad has come out, which confirms the use of fish oil and animal fat. Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu has claimed that during the previous Jaganmohan government, animal fat was being used in the Prasad available in Tirupati temple. It is being told that about 3 lakh laddus are made every day. In such a situation, many questions have arisen after this report came out. Let us tell you that Tirupati laddu is offered in Sri Venkateswara temple of Tirupati, which is operated by Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD).
Since when was this being done?
Who all were involved in this conspiracy?
What action was taken against the company that supplied ghee?
Amidst the ongoing politics over the Tirupati temple's Prasad, an old report of the Prasad has surfaced. Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu had claimed that during the previous government, animal fat and fish oil were being used in the Prasad available at the Tirupati temple. This has also been confirmed in the sample of Prasad taken in July. The Naidu government said that the previous Jaganmohan government played with the faith of Hindus. He said that after my government came to power, this has been banned, the report which has come out now is of July.
Who adulterated it?
Last month, TDP had changed the system of laddu prasad available in the temple and made Aadhar card mandatory for devotees who get laddu without darshan. BJP's firebrand MLA from Telangana T Raja Singh said - strict action should be taken against those who mix beef fat and fish oil in the holy laddu prasad. After the report came out, anger is being seen among saints across the country. Saints are saying that the board should be dissolved with immediate effect.
Karnataka BJP is on the offensive against YSR Congress. BJP is saying that the previous government in Andhra had appointed non-Hindus in the Tirupati temple board, which compromised our sacred traditions. Actually, this news is directly related to crores of devotees. The question is who adulterated the sacred prasad of Tirupati Balaji temple and why?
Every year the temple receives offerings and donations worth three thousand crores
Tirupati temple receives offerings and donations worth about three thousand crore rupees every year. Out of this, about 500 to 600 crore rupees come from selling those laddu prasads, which are now being accused of adulteration and it is a big thing that the laddus worth 500 crores sold as prasad may contain animal fat and their FAT.
