TTD Auction Call
The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams or TTD, which administers the Sri Balaji Temple in Tirupati Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh, has decided to auction 23 of its immovable properties, resulting in a hue and cry being raised over the sale.
The entire Opposition in Andhra Pradesh is up in arms over the move, but TTD Chairman Y V Subba Reddy has justified the trust’s decision saying the sale of properties in remote areas was within its purview.
Subba Reddy said that TTD had begun selling immovable and non-maintainable properties in 1974. At least 129 such properties have been disposed of between 1974 and 2014. He said one major reason for auctioning the lands was that they were being encroached upon in Tamil Nadu and Rishikesh.
