Visakhapatnam: Deputy Speaker Kolagatla Veerabhadraswamy requested celebrities and prominent persons to visit the Sri Paiditalli Ammavaru temple for the Sirimanotsavam Jatara.
“I will also be visiting the temple on Monday and request others to do the same,” he said.
The Deputy Speaker added that priority is being given to devotees coming from other areas and faraway places. "We have made arrangements to ensure that there is no inconvenience to devotees," he said.
