Fire Breaks Out at Srikalahasti Temple Prasadam Centre

 A fire broke out at the prasadam preparation centre of Sri Kalahasteeswara temple in Srikalahasti of Tirupati district following a gas leak at the facility located beside the southern tower.

The fire erupted suddenly while laddus, vadas and annaprasadam were being prepared for the deity. On receiving information, fire personnel rushed to the spot and launched operations to bring the flames under



control.

As a precautionary measure, power supply was disconnected to prevent inconvenience or danger to devotees in the surrounding mandapams. Temple executive officer Venkateswarlu and chairman Kotte Sai Prasad inspected the prasadam preparation centre.

Prasadam preparation has been temporarily suspended, and necessary safety measures are being put in place at the facility.
