Srisailam Temple Restricts Morning Sparsha Darshan
The Srisailam temple has made new rules for morning Sparsha Darshan on weekends and Mondays.
Now, only people who book in advance through special services or the temple's website can have morning darshan.
People with recommendation letters from important persons will not get morning slots and will have to go at night.
Important visitors can only get morning darshan if they come in person.
The temple asks everyone to follow these new rules to make darshan easier for everyone.
Morning Sparsha Darshan restricted to advance bookings via Mana Mitra WhatsApp or official online portal on weekends and Mondays.
Recommendation letters from public representatives no longer allowed for morning slots; night session from 9:00 PM onwards.
VIPs granted morning Sparsha Darshan only if visiting in person, with priority determined by temple management.
Changes aim to streamline crowd management and reduce waiting times for general devotees.
Temple authorities appeal for cooperation to ensure hassle-free darshan of Lord Mallikarjuna Swamy and Goddess Bhramaramba.
