The Municipal Corporation of Tirupati (MCT) laid a new road from Tilak Road to Jabbar layout in the city’s core area at an outlay of ₹1.16 crore, which is expected to bring much-needed relief to commuters.
What was merely a pathway less than twenty feet in width is now a forty feet road. As the road stretch is named ‘Bhu Piratti Margam’ after the mother of Sri Vaishnavite savant Sri Ramanujacharya, the descendants to his seat Tirumala Pedda Jeeyangar and Chinna Jeeyangar formally inaugurated the stretch.
