BR Naidu: Previous government did a lot of anarchy in Tirumala: Thithide Chairman BR Naidu
BR Naidu said that he feels lucky to have got the post of chairman of Titi
I have not been to Tirumala in the last five years
I was born and brought up in Chittoor district. Since my childhood, I used to go to no other temples except Tirumala. In our area we say we go to the hill.. The hill means Tirumala. The same custom is still there today. I feel that becoming the chairman of Titi is a new turning point in my life. Are you taking it seriously? The previous government did a lot of anarchy in Tirumala. I have not gone there even once in the last five years without that sanctity. I am very sad. We used to go five or six times a year in the past. There are many problems. I discussed this with CM Chandrababu. After Thithide takes over as chairman, we will again meet with the CM and take his advice.
Know how to respond to criticism
I participate in every spiritual program. There are also contacts with Swamiji. Hindu Dharma channel was also established. My desire is to work ethically and honestly. We want to serve Tirumala with our own money. Requesting everyone to protect the sanctity of Tirumala. My effort is that everyone who works there should be a Hindu. Every matter will be discussed and decided in the board meeting. I came with the idea of serving Sri. I know how to respond to criticism. I have not done anything wrong in my life.. If I write false news, I will go to court.
Devotees should complete darshan within an hour.
It is not advisable to keep devotees in compartments for long. If children are kept like that for a long time, they suffer a lot. For the last five years, the children were not even given milk in the compartments. When the new government comes, they are providing milk and breakfast. My idea is that the darshan of the devotees should be completed within an hour. My idea is to dissolve Srivani Trust. Why another trust when there is one big trust? Let’s think about tickets. Let’s bring back the previous time slot method. We will set up special committees for material supply and temple lands. We will focus on universities and hospitals. Water in glass bottles on the hill became a burden for the devotees. There is an idea to set up water plants and give free paper glasses,” said BR Naidu.
