‘Maha Shanti homam’ was performed at Sri Prasanna Anjaneya Swamy temple located on the seventh mile on the ghat road leading to Tirupati on Wednesday as a remedial measure to prevent road accidents which lately are on the rise on both the Tirumala ghat roads.
Speaking to the media, Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) Executive Officer A.V. Dharma Reddy said that the suggestion to perform the homam came from Agama advisors.
In addition, a time limit has been imposed on the vehicles plying on the ghat roads, and road barriers have been erected at the blind and deep curves.
