The TDB is the body that oversees the daily functioning of the temple and all those who wish to visit the temple this month on the above dates have to either have a valid RT-PCR certificate or must have taken both the vaccine doses and can log on to book their time. 

Taking into consideration the Covid outbreak only 15,000 pilgrims will be allowed every day.
