Ramadevi further shared that provisions have been made to accommodate devotees with an expansive 46,332 sq. ft. area in honour of Theppotsavam in Godavari on December 22 and Vaikuntha Ekadashi on the December 23. “Two LED screens will enhance the devotees' experience during Uttardwara darshan on Vaikuntha Ekadashi,” she said.
