Eknath Shinde, Fadnavis participate in bhoomi puja for TTD’s Venkateswara temple in Navi Mumbai

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis participated in the foundation stone laying ceremony for TTD’s Shri Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Navi Mumbai on Wednesday, June 7, 2023.

The temple, designed as a replica of the famous Tirumala temple in Andhra Pradesh, marks a significant milestone as the first TTD temple in Maharashtra. 

The world’s richest Hindu temple trust, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam, has constructed temples in various cities across the country like Chennai, Hyderabad (two temples - Himayatnagar and Jubilee Hills), Bengaluru, Kanyakumari, and now in Navi Mumbai. Every year, lakhs of devotees from Maharashtra visit Tirumala, a spiritual town in Tirupati district.
