After the struggle for a decade, the works on the Vakulamatha temple is almost completed and the shrine is ready for inauguration by Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy in a week.
According to mythology, ‘Vakula Matha’ is considered the foster mother of Lord Venkateswara (earlier known as Srinivasa), who had cared for him on his arrival at the Tirumala hills. She is also considered an incarnation of Yashoda, the foster-mother of Lord Krishna in ‘Dwaparayuga’.
