Rajahmundry: Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams will organise a state-level Vedic meet in presence of Sringeri seer Bharathi Teertha Swamy on the premises of Government Arts College grounds on January 15.
Speaking to newsmen here on Tuesday, TTD executive officer L.V. Subrahmanyam said that about 1,000 Vedic scholars from several parts of the country would take part in the meet. They would render four Vedas while five noted persons would also take part in the meet to deliver lectures on Veda shastras.
He said that the seer would be given a grand ceremonial welcome during his visit to the town to take part in the meet and added a procession would be taken out with the devotees in the town. Elephants and horses would also be arranged in the procession.
Mr Subrahmanyam said, "We are grateful to the seer for accepting our invite to take part in the Vedic meet. We wish that the presence of seer and the Vedic scholars in the meet to be held on the banks of Godavari river will bring in peace and prosperity to the region."
He appealed to the people to take part in the meet in large numbers. He also appealed to the donors to come forward to contribute whatever they intended to do to help them to organise the meet in a grand manner. He said that he invited TTD chairman and MP Kanumuri Bapiraju and Trust Board members to attend the meet.
Responding to query on why TTD was not providing patronage to several temples meant to promote Hindu dharma, the TTD official said that they were constrained by the limited financial resources. Howev-er, he said that they would provide financial assistan-ce for construction of new temples and their maintenance part should be taken up by the promoters and devotees of those temples.
Referring to the norms of the TTD Board, he said that they were permitted to extend financial assistance worth Rs25 lakh to revive two temples which were in a dilapidated condition for each district in a year and added that for any further assistance, they should get the approval from the board.
