Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has extended his wishes to the people of the state on the occasion of Maha Shivaratri. He highlighted that the sacred land housing the Srisailam Jyotirlinga temple is within the state. Naidu explained that, according to Shiva Purana, Lord Shiva appeared in the form of a lingam on this day, which is easy for devotees to worship.

He expressed hope that everyone would receive Lord Shiva’s blessings through worship and urged people to celebrate Maha Shivaratri with devotion and prayer. Naidu also prayed for the state's prosperity under Lord Shiva’s blessings, sharing his message on X.

Meanwhile, all Shaivite temples across the state are crowded with devotees.

Additionally, special buses are being operated to Shaiva shrines to prevent any inconvenience during the celebrations.
