Tirumala Swami’s laddu is considered by devotees as the true boon of Swami. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister’s statement regarding the holy laddu prasad of Tirumala Tirupati Swamy has seriously hurt the sentiments of Hindus. The Chief Minister informed the assembly that the previous government should use oils made from animal fat instead of ghee in Swami’s laddu prasadam. This is disturbing the minds of Hindus. The Vishwa Hindu Parishad feels that if the Chief Minister had made such a statement, he would have had solid evidence.
The present ruling government should conduct a thorough investigation and put the facts before the Hindu community. Otherwise, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad warns that it will be like doing a disservice by using the holy temples of Hindus for their political games. If it is found true that oils made from animal fat were used in Tirumala laddu as announced by the Chief Minister, the VHP demands an investigation into what is happening with the Prasad of the rest of the prominent temples in the state. Vishwa Hindu Parishad informs that if such a heinous act of treason took place under the previous government as said by the Chief Minister, whoever is responsible for it should be punished. VHP demands that the state government immediately set up a fast-track court to complete the investigation and punish the accused, whoever they are, to protect the sentiments of Hindus.
