TTD to establish corpus fund for temples
The TTD Executive Officer, Anil Kumar Singhal, had a meeting with officials to talk about how to manage and improve TTD temples.
He suggested creating a special fund for each temple to cover daily expenses like maintenance and repairs.
Big repairs and festivals should be paid for separately.
He also said each temple should have its own bank accounts for general use and for the free meal program.
To make things better for visitors, he talked about improving lines, security, and other services.
He wants to make sure there are good plans for the summer, like medical help and clean water.
He also emphasized the need for a set of rules (SOP) for workers and a system for easy donations.
TTD Executive Officer Anil Kumar Singhal held a review meeting with officials to discuss temple management and development.
A corpus fund will be established for each temple to cover daily maintenance and repairs.
Major repairs and annual festivals will be considered capital expenditure and funded separately.
Each temple will have a general account and an account for the Annadanam (free meal) program.
Plans for the upcoming summer season include improved medical services, drinking water, waste management, and toilets.
