During their visit to the Sammakka Sarakka temple, the ministers led special prayers. TSRTC officials convened for a review meeting at the Haritha Hotel in Medaram. The rtc officials were directed to make all required arrangements so that pilgrims visiting medaram Jathara would not face any difficulties. Because all special buses for the Jathara under the Mahalakshmi project will provide free bus travel, extra safeguards should be taken to ensure this.
The ministers commended the efforts of TSRTC MD VC Sajjanar and personnel in providing safe travel for over Rs 14.50 crore in telangana under the Mahalakshmi program. On february 16, the TSRTC basic cap will start in Medaram. There will be around 14,000 rtc personnel working in the medaram Jathara, and special arrangements are being made for their lodging and food.
The TSRTC has adopted the medaram Jathara. Every precaution is being taken to protect the devotees from encountering any hassles. Over 30 lakh devotees are expected to attend the Jathara, and buses will be allocated based on traffic demand, according to Sajjanar.
According to the MD of TSRTC, medaram attracts a large number of pilgrims from the former Warangal, Karimnagar, Khammam, and adilabad districts each year. To that goal, the respective districts have identified up to 51 traffic-generating places.
