'Talambralu' preparation begins for temple wedding in Bhadrachalam
Rituals for preparing 'talambralu' for the April 6 'Tiru Kalyana Mahotsavam' began at the Sri Seetha Ramachandra Swamy temple in Bhadrachalam. This followed a delayed 'Ankurarpana' ritual due to a controversy over the deputy chief priest's transfer. The transfer order has been paused after objections from temple priests. This decision will remain in effect until the Srirama Navami Brahmotsavams-2025, which runs from March 30 to April 12. Holi was celebrated in Bhadrachalam with special rituals, including Dolotsavam and Vasantotsavam, at the temple dedicated to Lord Sri Seetha Ramachandra Swamy.
