Tirupathi which is said to be one of the largest sacred place. Devotees from all around the world will turn to Tirupathi regularly in large number. But the encounter effect is now seen in the devotees too.

Generally it is regular that lakhs of devotees turn to Tirupathi and stand in large queue. But from the past few days, it is observed that many queue lines are empty and very few people are seen there.

As per the reports, there are just 55000 people that are been observed, turning to the temple daily. The effect is anyway connected with Tamilnadu, and none of the Tamilnadu devotees are in the queue, as there are many allegations going on between both the states currently.

But the thing is, the local people or the people from other states who regularly come to Tirupathi are nowhere observed this time. 

The VIP visits are restricted in the weekend and according to the protocol, the officials are going to allow only few to visit the temple. TTD officials are anyway allowing all the normal devotees to visit the temple even on the weekends.    

It is happy to know that at least at Tirupathi, the normal people are considered as VIPs and VIPs  are considered as normal people.  Lets hope soon that all the differences between the two states clear and Tirupathi to get back its devotees in large number again.
