Chandrasekhar compared the Simhachalam hundi theft with the Tirumala Parakamani case. He said both incidents involved sacred donations and demanded consistent treatment. The MLA highlighted that former CM YS Jagan and ex-TTD chairman YV Subba Reddy faced baseless accusations in the Parakamani case. He emphasized that false allegations should not target Simhachalam temple officials.

He also questioned why the police have not arrested the temple staff involved in the theft. Chandrasekhar noted that the accused were sent home with notices under Section 41A. He urged the government to ensure devotees’ donations reach Lord Varaha Swamy and not private individuals.

The MLA demanded transparency and accountability from the authorities. He insisted that all temple cases be investigated thoroughly and that government inaction should not create doubts among devotees. Chandrasekhar emphasized that the public expects integrity in handling all temple-related matters.

Jagan recalled that similar incidents had occurred earlier at temples across the state. He pointed out that during Vaikunta Ekadashi in Tirupati, six devotees lost their lives in a stampede. Likewise, seven devotees had died in a tragic incident at Simhachalam Temple.

Expressing grief over repeated tragedies, Jagan said the Kasibugga incident was another painful reminder of inadequate safety measures at temples. He appealed to the state government to take responsibility and act swiftly to ensure such events never recur.

He emphasized the need to prioritize the safety of devotees during major religious gatherings and strengthen management at all temples to prevent future disasters.
