Protocol Violation In TTD
Tirumala Tirupati Devastanam was marred in another controversy. Former TTD member OV Ramana alleged that former Prime Minister HD Dewe Gowda and Chief Minister HD Kumara swamy were insulted by not extending protocol they entitled during their recent visit to the temple town Tirumala to offer prayers.
Taking serious note of Ramana's accusations, TTD Joint EO Srinivas Raju served legal notices on the former TTD member. In a quick response, Ramana tendered apology and threatened he will approach national media and expose the TTD's indifference if the board did not respond to his demand to explain the reasons for the violation of protocol.
The Karnataka state government will also shot off a letter to AP government in the particular issue.
