Tirupati Pilgrims Return Without Darshan

 

TIRUMALA, INDIA, January 18, 2003: Thousands of pilgrims returned home

recently without darshan of Lord Venkateswara, because the waiting time

for the Sudarshan tickets exceeded 50 hours. Although the

Tirumala-Tirupathi Devasthanams had geared to meet the rush of Ayyappa

devotees, the arrangements fell into disarray. Angry devotees raised

slogans against the TTD management and the Andhra Pradesh Chief

Minister. Thousands of pilgrims, particularly those who had bought the

special tickets, were upset at the long waiting hours and wanted to

collect the laddus provided free with the tickets.
