Animal fat  in Tirumala prasadam: Chandrababu

In a recent statement, the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu made serious allegations against the previous government, claiming that they used animal oil instead of ghee in the preparation of *Tirumala Srivari prasadam*.

The *prasadam*, a sacred offering to Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala, is traditionally made with pure ingredients, including ghee. 

These accusations have sparked outrage and controversy, with many demanding a thorough investigation into the practices of the previous administration to determine the validity of these claims.

The Chief Minister's remarks have brought attention to the issue of maintaining the sanctity and quality of offerings made in religious contexts
