TTD EO visits Goshala, Sanskrit varsity
The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) is making brisk progress in the preparation of Agarbathi (perfumed incense sticks) from cow products as well as the used floral garlands taken from the various temples under its umbrella. TTD Executive Officer K.S. Jawahar Reddy on Wednesday visited Sri Venkateswara Gosamrakshanashala (Dairy Farm), where a huge shed is being built for the purpose. The idea is to infuse the essence of flowers disposed of by temples into Panchagavya and similar mixture of cow-based products to produce Agarbathi and allied products.More Related News
