Deccan Chronicle  

Anantapur: For the first time, Tirumala celebrated the grand hunting ritual – Paruveta Utsavam – at the renovated centuries-old Paruveta Mandapam on Tuesday evening. The idol was taken in a ceremonial procession from Tirumala Temple to the Paruveta Mandapam for hunting of the wild beast, which happens immediately after the Dasara festivities. Speaking on the occasion, TTD chairman Bhumana Karunakara Reddy told media that the age-old Paruveta Mandapam, which had almost been in a state of collapse, has been renovated, making it more spacious and convenient for devotees, while retaining its grandeur. Earlier, temple authorities took Sri Malayappa Swamy in a grand procession from the Tirumala temple to seat Him on the special platform at the Paruveta Mandapam.
