TTD justifies move to mandate Aadhar validation for issuance of laddus for ticket-less devotees at Tirumala

TTD EO J Syamala Rao indicated this move ensures fair distribution. Devotees with darshan tickets remain unaffected. Non-ticket holders can obtain one free laddu and buy two more post Aadhar validation. Misconceptions about the new decision were addressed, urging cooperation for corruption control.
