TIRUPATI: State endowments minister Anam Ramnarayana Reddy reviewed the arrangements for the Penchalakona Penusila Narasimha Swamy annual Brahmotsavams on Saturday.

This ancient temple attracts a huge turnout of devotees from various districts of Andhra Pradesh, particularly during the annual Brahmotsavams.
Speaking to reporters along with Venkatagiri TDP legislator Kurugondla Ramakrishna after the review of the arrangements, Anam stated that the Penchalakona annual Brahmotsavams will be celebrated in a grand manner between May 8-14.
“For the first time in the history of the temple, free laddu Prasadam will be provided to all the devotees taking part in the annual festival. Elaborate arrangements have been made to ensure the pilgrims have a hassle free Darshan during the Brahmotsavams. Keeping the scorching summer temperatures in mind, the temple authorities have been instructed to distribute drinking water, buttermilk and other refreshments continuously to the devotees. Milk and biscuits will be provided to infants in the queue lines. Elaborate security arrangements have been made to ensure the annual Brahmotsavams are held peacefully without any untoward incidents”, Endowments minister asserted.
