Heavy Rush at TTD Alipiri Counter as 15,000 Sarva Darshan Tickets Booked
The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) darshan ticket counter at Alipiri witnessed a heavy rush on Wednesday, as devotees flocked to book slots for the Sarva Darshan. Within a short span, around 15,000 slotted tickets were booked, reflecting the high demand for a visit to the famed Tirupati temple.
TTD officials said the brisk booking was in line with expectations, given the ongoing festive season and the year-end holidays, which attract large numbers of pilgrims. Measures were in place to ensure smooth ticketing, including separate counters and staff assistance to handle the rush efficiently.
The Sarva Darshan system, which allows devotees to pre-book time slots, is aimed at managing crowds and reducing waiting time while maintaining a smooth flow of pilgrims inside the temple premises. TTD authorities urged devotees to plan their visits in advance and make use of online booking facilities to avoid last-minute inconvenience.
The brisk response underscores the enduring devotion and enthusiasm of pilgrims visiting Tirupati.
