The world famous Tirumala Laddu is very sacred for Venkanna devotees. But now that brownie has become controversial. Ghee in the preparation of laddoos has caused controversy.
The comment that Tirumala Laddu is made of animal fat caused a stir. The attitude of the ruling party, which is pointing out the quality of ghee, and the opposition, which is ready for any inquiry, is confusing devotees.
Meanwhile, the Karnataka government has issued a sensational order in the wake of the recent Srivari Laddu Prasad controversy. Karnataka Minister Ramalinga Reddy has issued orders to use only nandini ghee for making prasads in the temples of Karnataka state. The quality of prasads in major temples of Karnataka will be regularly checked.
