Devotees believe that passing through this "Gate of Heaven" during Vaikunta Ekadasi brings moksha, liberation from the cyc…
One of the most useful yet under-used facilities that Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) provides is its completely free bus service, popularly known as Sri Vari Dharma Rathams.
