Honorary chief priest of the temple of Lord Venkateswara, Venkataramana Dikshitulu, was criticised by his colleagues over remarks that he had allegedly made on social media against the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) administration.
Strongly refuting the allegations of Mr. Ramana Dikshitulu, current chief priests Venugopala Dikshitulu and Krishna Seshachala Dikshitulu demanded stern action against the honorary chief priest over the alleged remarks made in a video that has gone viral on social media.
Addressing a crowded media conference, the chief priests on Thursday termed the allegations of excavations inside the hill temple as totally false and baseless, and ruled out any kind of deviations in the conduct of the daily worship.
