Simhachalam Devasthanam Executive Officer M.V. Suryakala has said that the male calves, donated by devotees to the temple, as per their vows to the deity, will be handed over to farmers, free of cost, as the death of calves is bringing disrepute to the temple. In view of the adverse reports in vernacular dailies, Ms. Suryakala told a media conference here on Tuesday, that the devasthanam was being held responsible for the death of calves though it was taking all possible measures like providing fodder, water and shelter to them at the temple ‘goshala’.
