Tirupathi

The Tirumala-Tiruapti Devasthanams (TTD) Executive Officer D Sambasiva Rao has instructed officials to issue gloves to volunteers serving laddus to pilgrims, keeping hygiene in mind. Dr Rao said, with the ever floating population in Tirumala, TTD is keen on maintaining and implementing proper sanitation and hygiene. “To avoid spread of contagious diseases, we have commenced serving food in Annaprasadam Complex by the staff and volunteers wearing gloves. Similarly we implement the same in laddu prasadam distribution counters also. Henceforth, the staff in the counters will distribute the laddus to pilgrims wearing gloves”, he added.
