AP CM Couple Returns to Tirumala: Tradition Revived After Years!

Like a long-lost melody returning to a familiar tune, Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and his wife Bhuvaneswari, have made their way back to the sacred hills of Tirumala after five years. The Tirumala shrine is a significant place for Hindus, especially in the Telugu-speaking states of Andhra and Telangana. Traditionally, the Chief Minister and their spouse visit the temple each year before the grand Bramhotsavam festival to offer silk garments to Lord Balaji. This ritual is a cherished part of the region's customs.

In the past, it was common for the Chief Minister and his wife to participate in this special ceremony together. The CM would carry the silk clothes on his head, while his wife would accompany him inside the temple for a special prayer. However, this tradition was interrupted during Jagan Mohan Reddy's tenure, as he visited the temple alone without his wife Bharathi, breaking a long-standing custom of the CM couple.

Last night, CM Chandrababu Naidu and his wife Bhuvaneswari joyfully revived this important tradition. They participated in the ceremonial offering at Tirumala, marking the start of the much-anticipated Bramhotsavam festival. This return after five years signifies not just a personal reunion with tradition but also a reconnection with the cultural heritage that many hold dear.

As they took part in this auspicious event, it reminded everyone of the importance of rituals and customs in maintaining cultural identity. The CM couple's presence at Tirumala is expected to resonate positively with devotees and reinforce their commitment to upholding traditions that are central to the community's values. As they move forward, many will be watching closely to see how they continue to honor these cherished practices.
