Tirumala, July 3 (Reporter) Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) Executive officer J Syamala Rao directed the officials concerned to take steps to improve the signaling system, especially so that the control room gets movement of the alarm signals on the movement of wild beasts roaming from the Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple to the seventh mile at any time. This system would help in sending caution to the devotees and alerting them on time, Rao said at a review meeting held on the safety measures for the pedestrian devotees with the Government Forest, TTD Forest, Engineering, Vigilance, and Security Departments here on Tuesday evening. The safety and security of the pilgrims trekking the footpath routes to reach Tirumala hold paramount importance, he asserted, asked the officials to give high priority to the safety of the devotees going on the Alipiri and Srivari Mettu walkways. Speaking on this occasion, EO said that apart from the existing trap cameras, more numbers should be set up to track the movement of leopards and other animals. The officials were directed to write a letter to the Committee saying that the proposals given by the earlier joint committee were too expensive and suggested cost effective alternative structures and routes. Earlier, the EO was briefed by the forest officials on when the footpath has high or low flow of devotees, times leopards are roaming in the area, through a PPT prepared by Wild Life Institution of India. It was brought to the notice of the EO that the devotees on foot should reach Tirumala at the prescribed times, and accordingly, changes should be made. The EO asked JEO Veerabraham and Chief Vigilance and Security Officer Narasimha Kishore to discuss with the concerned authorities and take appropriate measures as per the suggestions of forest officials.
