The temple management of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) reopens its doors today for the darshan of Sri Venkateswara Swamy, almost 80 days after it was closed due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-necessitated nationwide lockdown. Earlier last week, TTD Trust Board Chairman YV Subba Reddy had confirmed that the temple would reopen its doors on June 8. It may be recalled that the Venkateshwara temple at Tirumala, which is visited by millions of people every year, was closed around 80 days ago. So what are the arrangements and measures that are to be taken up by the TTD in view of the recommencement of Darshan from today onwards? From June 11 onwards, 3000 tokens of Rs 300 each will be issued to devotees in an online manner.
