There was a huge chaos in Tirupathi as the Malaiyappa Swamy deity idol fell down at the Tirupathi Venkateshwara temple. Yesterday the Sahasra Deepa decoration Pooja was scheduled and following this the temple priests started the march taking Malaiyappa Swamy deity idol along with Sridevi Boodevi towards the sanctum Santorum.
While carrying the statue one of the priests slipped and fell down following which the Malaiyappa Swamy deity idol fell down.
The other priests who were shocked
came rushing to lift Malaiyappa Swamy deity idol and then the priests Venugopal
Deetchithalu and Sundaravadana Bhattacharya conducted a yaga to let go off the
sin and following this the idol was restored. This incident has created ripples
among the people within the temple and devotees.
