Tirupati temple at the centre of several scandals

Gifts from 16th century Vijayanagar king unaccounted for, corruption in sale of darshan tickets.

The richest Hindu temple trust in the world, the Tirumala-Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), the abode of Lord Balaji, is witnessing some of the most unholy acts of scandal and corruption.

The TTD, which receives annual donations from devotees in excess of Rs500 crore, has been rocked by multiple scams in recent months. Jewels and ornaments gifted by 16th century Hindu king Krishna Deva Raya have been found missing or not accounted for. Tickets meant for devotees have been used by politicians and powerful trustees for private profiteering. B Suresh, a camp clerk with TTD special officer Dharma Reddy’s office, committed suicide on Thursday night, apparently under pressure from bigwigs. And gold coins minted from the offerings of devotees have been sold apparently without proper receipts.

With angry devotees raising their voices against the way the lord’s wealth has been mulcted and mismanaged, the Andhra Pradesh government has appointed three bureaucrats — J Satyanarayana, IYR Krishna Rao, serving executive officer of the TTD, and V Nagi Reddy —  to oversee the organisation’s work. The tenure of the 11-member board of TTD trustees, led by Congress leader DK Adikeshavulu Naidu, has now been terminated.    

An enquiry commissioned by the government found that seva tickets (which allow devotes to be present for some pujas for a price) were sold in black to VIPs and other moneyed clients through a manipulation of the online system.

Tickets priced at nominal rates of Rs 100-200 were found to have been sold for several thousands of rupees - obviously with the connivance of untrustworthy trustees. A report submitted to the government by the TTD’s vigilance and enforcement department a few months back named 55 persons, including three board members, as complicit in these scams.

It recommended framing charges under IPC for breaching the trust of pilgrims. No action has been taken so far.

The alleged suicide of Suresh, the camp clerk, is being linked to pressure from bosses who wanted him to take the rap for the seva ticket scam. The police are yet to get to the bottom of this premature death.

However, the mother of all scams is still in the vaults of Lord Balaji: missing jewels, gems and ornaments. During Vijayanagar king Krishna Deva Raya’s reign in the 16th century, the temple was gifted several pieces of jewellery studded with diamonds and other precious stones. Since then, thousands of devotees have been donating gold jewellery to the TTD. According to temple rules, the TTD as a trust has to accept the gifts and offerings and keep them in safe custody.

However, the jewellery has not been audited properly for several years. In fact, one P Seshadri, officer on special duty (OSD), has managed the Bokkasam (treasury) for over 10 years.

He apparently had control of both the keys to the treasury, contrary to the earlier system where the keys were with two different people to avoid temptations.

“No one knows the value of the jewellery. Whether it’s Rs 50,000 crore or more, it is anybody’s guess since some of the diamonds and precious stones are really precious. Because of its antiquity, you can’t really value the stones today though it is easy to value the gold. Even in the case of gold jewellery, they date back to centuries and it is not fair to value them based on the market rate for the yellow metal,” the source said.

According to a vigilance report of 2008, several diamonds and precious stones in the lord’s jewellery went missing. To fill the gap, the TTD had used artificial stones. “It was explained to the investigating team during the inquiry (in 2007-08) that the stones had come off the jewellery due to wear and tear and the diamonds and precious stones could not be located subsequently.

It was definitely an act of omission by the officials handling the treasury, if not of active commission,” a senior official who worked with the TTD earlier, told DNA.

Treasury officials were allegedly linked to yet another scam involving gold coins. Popularly called dollars, the gold coins are of five gm each. It was found in 2007 that about 300 dollars were sold without accounting for them in the books. Their value was estimated to be about Rs 15 lakh.

While three officials were suspended after a vigilance report, Seshadri, the person in charge of the treasury, is still engaged in a tussle with the TTD to remain in service. In fact, he was to retire in 2006 and his term was extended by an executive order. While Seshadri was accused of dereliction of duty, the other officials manning the treasury were terminated.

The scams and misuse of TTD wealth are now snowballing into a political issue. TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu, who hails from Chittoor district where the temple is located, and Praja Rajyam chief Chiranjeevi, who is an elected representative from Tirupati, have vowed to end the TTD corruption. In fact, Naidu had taken out a padayatra to Tirumala recently to prepare the party cadre for an all-out fight against corruption.

However, a former TTD board member said that crux of the issue was that the board was controlled by politicians. “The immediate past chairman of the board (Adikeshavulu Naidu) was with the TDP till the no-confidence vote last year in the Lok Sabha.

While the TDP wanted its MPs to vote against the government, Naidu voted with it. In return, the Congress government in Andhra Pradesh rewarded him with the TTD’s chairmanship. The chairman who was in office before Naidu, Karunakar Reddy, was close to YS Rajashekhara Reddy, the previous chief minister who was killed in a helicopter crash last year.

Though there has been a demand for a CBI probe into the affairs of TTD, endowments minister Gade Venkat Reddy said that there no need for it. “There is no need for any CBI probe. The government is probing the allegations. There are vigilance reports on various issues and we will take appropriate action,” Reddy said.
