TTD Board Member Alleges Corruption in Ayurveda Pharmacy
A board member from the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) is saying that people in charge of the Ayurveda Pharmacy bought machines that were not good.
These machines were supposed to make medicine but were broken, didn't work, or were just bad quality.
The machines cost a lot of money, but they're not worth much now.
The board member says a person from the TTD bought the machines from a fake company and plans to report this to the police to find out who was responsible.
TTD Board member alleges corruption in the Ayurveda Pharmacy wing.
Machines worth Rs 4 crore were purchased during the previous board's tenure.
Many machines were damaged, non-functional, or of substandard quality.
A TTD official allegedly procured the machines from a bogus company.
A police complaint will be filed against those involved.
