After Ram Janmabhoomi, Two Religious Bodies Row Over Hanuman's Birthplace

A committee appointed by the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam said scriptures like the Puranas and copper-plate inscriptions refer to Anjanadri, now called Tirumala, as Hanuman's birthplace
After the Ram Janmabhoomi debate was settled by the Supreme Court in November 2019, a new controversy has erupted - this time over Hanuman Janmabhoomi.
This, however, is not between two religions but between two Hindu trusts (one in Andhra Pradesh and the other in Karnataka) claiming different locations as the birthplace of Hanuman.
The TTD, or Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam, in Andhra Pradesh has planned a ceremony for Wednesday to develop facilities at Anjanadri, a temple and pilgrimage site in the Tirumala Hills, where formal consecration as Hanuman's birthplace took place on Ram Navami in April last year.
The Sri Hanumad Janmabhoomi Teertha Kshetra Trust in Karnataka, however, does not agree.
