The Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments (HR and CE) Department’s Annadhanam scheme under which food is served to people on plantain leaves, resumed in the city’s temples after a year-and-a-half with COVID-19 protocols and guidelines in place.
Under the scheme, temples usually serve meals to the public on plantain leaves, with seating facilities in their ‘annadhana koodam,’ but it was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic since March last year. Since then temples continued providing the meals in packets. On Monday, serving of meals resumed at the temples.
