Sri Madhava Perumal Temple: renovation set to start soon

Sri Madhava Perumal Temple in Thyagarajapuram will soon wear a fresh look.

Renovation is expected to start soon., being done after the last one some 15v years ago.

In 2005, industrialist Venu Srinivasan had anchored the renovation that involved refurbishing the sacred tank on the southern side, revival of the Nandavanam, repair works of the flooring as well as painting of the vimanas and the Raja Gopuram.

The previous consecration had taken place in January 2007.

Once again, Venu Srinivasan’s team will undertake the repair and renovation , covering the entire temple complex. Last Saturday, his painting team was at the temple to assess the current state of the temple walls and to take measurements.

Balalayam could take place in Avani once the Thiruppani Committee gives the green signal for the renovation. Following this, all the repair works and painting of the walls will commence.

The consecration event is expected to take place early next year.
