Former CM Jagan Mohan Reddy cancels Tirumala visit, easing tension in temple town, amid controversy over alleged sins.

YSRCP leader YS Jagan Mohan Reddy may be issued a police notice instructing him to adhere to prohibitory orders before his upcoming visit to the Venkateswara Swamy temple at Tirumala Hills on Friday.

In a scathing attack, former CM and YSRCP leader Jagan Mohan Reddy accused Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu of lying about the Tirupati Laddu Prasadam controversy. Reddy alleged that Naidu's government obstructed his temple visit and spread false claims about the prasadam's ingredients to divert political focus.

Jagan Reddy claimed that the notices threatened to take legal action against any YSRCP member found participating in the Tirumala events

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu had last week claimed that substandard ingredients and animal fat were used in the preparation of laddus at the Tirupati Temple during the previous government.

Telugu Desam Party and Bharatiya Janata Party leaders asked the YSRCP leader to sign a declaration meant for non-Hindus before entering its premises.

Chandrababu Naidu maintained that while traditions at the temple must be upheld, no one had issued Jagan Reddy any notices to prevent him from entering.

As YS Jagan Mohan Reddy plans a visit to Tirumala, police caution YSRCP leaders against violating assembly rules, while political tensions rise over accusations involving Tirupati laddus and demands for faith declarations.

YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's visit to the Lord Venkateswara Swamy temple at Tirumala Hills has prompted district police to issue notices under Section 30 of the Police Act. The notices caution party leaders and cadre against defying prohibitory orders amid social media calls for gatherings.

Andhra Pradesh government has issued a notice to several leaders of the YSRCP to not defy prohibitory orders ahead of Jagan Reddy's Tirupati temple visit.
