Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has alleged that previous YSR Congress-led by Jagan Mohan Reddy had used animal fat in consecrated sweets--'Tirupati Prasadam' instead of 'Ghee' at Sri Venkateswara temple in Tirupati.
In a post on X, Andhra Pradesh Minister Nara Lokesh shared a video clip of his father, CM Naidu, addressing a gathering and wrote, "The Lord Venkateswara Swamy Temple at Tirumala is our most sacred temple. I am shocked to learn that the ysjagan administration used animal fat instead of ghee in the tirupati Prasadam." "Shame on ysjagan and the ysrcparty government that couldn't respect the religious sentiments of crores of devotees," he wrote on the post. The temple is devoted to Lord Venkateswara, a manifestation of Lord Vishnu who is believed to have come to earth to deliver humanity from the trials and tribulations of the Kali Yuga. As a result, the location has been given the name Kaliyuga Vaikuntha, and the god is known as Kaliyuga Prathyaksha Daivam. The Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena (JS), and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), popularly called the NDA Alliance, had marked a landslide victory in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections by winning 164 seats out of 175. N Chandrababu Naidu, President of TDP, took oath as Chief Minister of the State after defeating YSR Congress. YSRCP had won 11 seats while TDP alone had won 135 seats in the state. (ANI)
