The Yagas would be held every day till March 28 with thousands of devotees from across the State participating.

About 10,000 devotees can have their meals at a time at the venue.A The Swamiji has been touring the city for the past 15 days after completing his district tour to prepare the devotees for the Yagam. Speaking about the Mahalakshmi Yagam, Sri Tridandi Sriramachandra Ramanuja Jeeyar Swami said that there would be a Ksheera Sagaram (sea of milk) at the venue with over 2000 litres of milk collected from the devotees. The deity Mahalakshmi would emerge from the Ksheera Sagaram during the Yagam, which would be a special attraction for the devotees, he said.
