The Hill Temple Executive Officer, Mr. A.P.V.N.Sarma, in his capacity as member secretary of the body has administered oath of office and secrecy to the Board's Chairman, Mr. B. Karunakara Reddy, a close confidant of the Andhrapradesh Chief Minister, Dr. Y.S.Rajasekhara Reddy and nine other trustees of the Board. Mr. N.Subramanyam MLA, who could not attend and take the oath as trustee (member) due to ill health and would be taking the oath next week, temple sources said. The names of the trustees who took the oath were Tirupati based business magnate and also a close family friend of former Prime Minister, Mr. H.D. Deve Gowda, Mr. O.V.Ramana, MLAs Mr Janga Krishnamurthy, Mr. Sudarshan Reddy, noted industrialist Mr. R.P.Goenka , Mr. Vijay Sai Reddy, Mr. Gokaraju Ramaraju, Dr. Chadalawada Sudha, Mr. N.Srinivasan and Mrs. T.Indira Reddy, wife of former TTD Board Chairman, Dr.T.Subbirami Reddy, Union Minister of State for Mines. What surprised everyone in the temple was that Mrs. T.Indira Reddy, for the reasons unknown, has created history by taking the oath alone two hours in advance in the morning and left the temple before the Chairman and other members could reach the shrine for taking the oath of office and secrecy, temple sources added. http://www.tirupatitimes.com/ <http://www.tirupatitimes.com/> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
