TTD gears up for Salakatla Brahmotsavams with tight security plans

In a preparatory meeting held at Annamaiah Bhavan on Saturday, TTD Chief Vigilance and Security Officer (CV&SO) K.V. Murali Krishna underscored the need for stringent security measures for the upcoming annual Salakatla Brahmotsavams, scheduled to commence on September 24.

Drawing from past experiences, the meeting focused on key aspects including the deployment of advanced technology for continuous surveillance through the Common Command Control Room, and comprehensive bandobust arrangements—particularly during the visit of the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh for the presentation of Pattu Vastrams, as well as during major events like Garuda Vahanam, Rathotsavam, and Chakrasnanam.

To facilitate a smooth darshan experience for devotees, the CV&SO instructed officials to meticulously plan gallery arrangements and streamline entry and exit routes. Anticipating heavy footfall and vehicular movement, he directed the Vigilance and Security departments to earmark exclusive parking zones to ease traffic congestion. TTD VGOs Ram Kumar, Surendra, and other senior officials were present at the meeting.
