Travancore Devaswom Board approaches Kerala Government with a request to lift the regulations in place for using the Neelimala route
As the pilgrim footfall at Sabarimala witnesses a gradual surge, the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) has come up with a plan to open the Neelimala-Marakkoottam route to devotees.
With the COVID-19 restrictions in place, devotees are currently permitted to trek the hillock only through the Swami Ayyappan Road. Buoyed by the rising footfall, which has already crossed 75,000, the TDB has approached the State Government with a request to lift the regulations in place for using the Neelimala route.
