Srisailam temple management makes changes in darshan arrangements to improve darshan for common devotees
The Srisailam temple management has implemented new darshan regulations to reduce wait times for common devotees during peak days. VIP access has been restricted to specific hours and conditions to prioritize the experience of general pilgrims.
Why it matters
These changes reflect the management's response to increasing pilgrim footfall and the ongoing challenge of balancing VIP access with equitable public service at major religious sites.
To facilitate quick darshan to the common devotees and to bring down waiting time in queue lines on Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays, the management of Sri Bhramaramba Mallikarjuna Swamy temple at Srisailam has announced certain changes in darshan to VIPs.
Srisailam temple Trust Board Chairman Pothugunta Ramesh Naidu and Executive Officer M. Srinivasa Rao jointly announced the changes to the break darshan system on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays for the convenience of ordinary devotees, given the unprecedented daily rise in pilgrim footfall at Srisailam.
Speaking on the occasion, they stated that on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays, 'Sparsha Darshan’ (touch darshan) during morning hours would be provided exclusively to devotees who have obtained tickets in advance via the 'Manamitra’ WhatsApp service or online platforms.
