The controversy over Tirumala laddu prasadam adulteration has taken a sharp political turn in Andhra Pradesh. The issue triggered heated scenes in Guntur after YSR Congress Party leader and former minister Ambati Rambabu made strong remarks targeting Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu. As a result, tensions flared on the streets, drawing public attention once again to the sensitive Tirumala laddu issue.
Banner Protest Raises Tensions Near Temple
Meanwhile, TDP leaders installed banners near the Venkateswara Swamy temple in Guntur. These banners questioned the alleged use of adulterated ghee in Tirumala laddu prasadam. Soon after, Ambati Rambabu reached the spot along with a large number of YSRCP supporters. However, police officials stopped him from approaching the banners to prevent unrest.
Police Intervention Triggers Heated Exchange
As the police blocked his movement, the situation quickly escalated. Rambabu lost his temper and strongly objected to the banners. At the same time, he accused the TDP of spreading false stories about the laddu prasadam. He also made sharp comments against Chandrababu Naidu, which further intensified the situation.
YSRCP Launches Statewide Religious Response
Earlier, the YSR Congress Party launched purification rituals across Andhra Pradesh. The party claimed that false propaganda was being spread about Tirumala laddu prasadam. According to YSRCP leaders, these rituals aimed to protect the faith of devotees and counter what they called a political smear campaign.
Political Heat Grows Over Sacred Issue
As the debate continues, the Tirumala laddu controversy has become a major political flashpoint. While the TDP demands clarity and accountability, the YSRCP insists that the issue is being used for political gain. Meanwhile, police remain alert to prevent further clashes in sensitive areas.
Devotees Seek Clarity Amid Political Noise
Above all, devotees are watching closely. Many believe that religious matters should be kept out of political fights. They expect clear answers and responsible statements from all sides. In the coming days, this issue is likely to remain in the spotlight, both politically and socially.
