Trust was inaugurated on Saturday, January 31 at the Rajangan of Sri Krishna

Math here.

 

Tirumala Tirupati Temple Board of Trustees chairman D K Adikeshavulu Naidu

inaugurated the programme. Speaking on the occasion, Adikeshavulu explained,

that Tirumala temple will extend assistance to Sri Krishna Math for building the

planned Kalyana Mantap, which will also have residential facility. Tirumala

temple has been providing food to the devotees free of cost, and on an average,

50,000 people partake food there. With the help of the cow shelter established

by the temple there, 1,500 devotees are being provided with milk free of cost at

present. In February, the temple will be setting up a Cow Conservation Centre in

700 acres of land in a place located 60 kms away from the temple town of

Tirumala. Once that centre starts functioning, the Trust would be able to set

aside 6,000 litres of milk for devotees on a day-to-day basis, he explained.
