Hyderabad:
Animal fat has been found in the ghee used for the prasad of Tirumala temple in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. This has come to light in a lab report. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu had accused the previous government of adulterating the Tirumala prasad. CM Chandrababu Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) released the report of the Center of Analysis and Learning in Livestock and Food (CALF) lab and said that during the YSR Party government, animal fat was found in the ghee used for making laddus as prasad in the Tirupati temple.
According to the CALF lab report, traces of fish oil and beef tallow have been found in ghee. Some amount of lard is also found in it. Lard is a semi-solid white fat extracted from the fatty tissue of pigs.
Tirupati temple is dedicated to Sri Venkateshwara, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. This temple is built on Tirumala hill in Tirupati district. It is also known as Tirupati Balaji temple.
Chandrababu Naidu made this claim
In fact, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday accused the previous government led by Jagan Mohan Reddy of adding animal fat to the laddus of Tirupati temple. Naidu claimed, “In the last 5 years, the leaders of the YSR Congress Party have tarnished the sanctity of Tirumala. They compromised the quality of ‘Annadanam’ (free food). Even animal fat was used instead of ghee in the sacred laddus of Tirumala.”
YSR blamed CM Chandrababu Naidu
On the allegations of TDP, senior YSR Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP YV Subba Reddy said that CM Chandrababu Naidu has committed a big sin by hurting the holy temple of Tirumala and the faith of crores of Hindus. Chandrababu’s comments on Tirumala Prasad are very condemnable. No human being can say such words or make such allegations.
