The delegation met AIMIM General Secretary and Yakutpura MLA Syed Pasha Quadri, Nampally MLA Jaffar Hussain Meraj and MLC Mirza Riyaz-ul-Hassan Effendi on Monday and presented flower bouquet and shawls.
According to the committee members, thousands of devotees attend the Bonalu festival in Simhavahini Mahankali temple in Lal Darwaza each year, which is the biggest cultural festival in Telangana State. Due to the lack of enough space, the devotees face many problems. AIMIM Floor leader Akbaruddin Owaisi submitted a memorandum and requested for an amount of Rs 10 crore to Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao on Sunday for development and expansion of the temple. "For his gesture towards the development of temple, the committee members felicitated the MLAs in AIMIM headquarters", said K Venkatesh, committee member. Later, speaking to media persons, Pasha Quadri said that according to the Temple committee, this issue of temple development was pending for last 30 years. The issue has been moved with the representation of Akbaruddin Owaisi. "For the last 25 years the Chandrayangutta MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi is serving for all communities and taking up several developmental works in Old city", he added.
Temple Committee Chairman, Tirupati Narsing Rao, members K Venkatesh, B Maruthi Yadav, G Arvind Goud, PY Kailash Veer and Temple development committee chairman C Bangla Raju Yadav, G Mahesh Goud, P S Jagdish Mudiraj, C Venkatesh and others were present.
On Sunday, Akbaruddin Owaisi met the CM at Pragati Bhavan and submitted a memorandum in this regard. He reminded that the Bonalu being held in this temple every year are known all over the World as the famous Lal Darwaja Bonalu. "Lal Darwaja Mahankali temple has more than a hundred years of history. During the Bonalu, lakhs of people offer prayers and Bonalu here. But the temple complex is situated in a 100 square yards area. Due to the narrow space, it is causing immense problems to lakhs of the devotees. There is a need to develop the temple. Develop the temple and widen it at a cost of Rs 10 Crore. With the expansion of the temple, people in the vicinity may lose properties. Compensate them by providing 800 square yards of land at Fareed Market, which is under the GHMC. Consider widening and development of the temple as a top priority work. This will be useful to the devotees," he pointed out in the representation.
