Is there special entrance for the aged and handicapped for darsan of Srivaru? Do they require to produce any certificate?

– M.S. Krishna, Cuddapah

The handicapped and the aged are allowed for Srivari darsan through mahadwaram. An attendant is also permitted to accompany them. They need not produce any certifically. Their disability should be clearly visible. The handicapped and those who are advanced in age may contact the authorities at the temple Mahadwaram.

Due to restriction in the sale of cellar darsan tickets, we may face problem in darshan of Srivaru. How can we overcome them?

– Srinivasa Rao, Renigunta

Darsan will be easier and comfortable if seva tickets are reserved well in advance.

Further Sudarsan tokens facilitate pilgrims to know Srivari darsan timings and thus plan their pilgrimage ahead.

You may please arrange Srivari darsan tickets of Rs. 1500 or Rs. 2000 and a limited number of ticket holders may be allowed for darsan through Mahadwaram. This will be helpful for the devotees desirous of having quick darsan.

– Venkata Sivaraji Reddy, Boliperu

There is no such proposal now.

There is no proper order in the performance of Abhishekam Sri Padmavathi Ammavari Temple, Tiruchanur. Those who have reserved tickets in advance are seated far behind.

– Srinivas, Bangalore

Care will be taken not to happen such things in future.
