Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) is increasing sanitation and cleanliness measures at the Tirumala hill shrine ahead of the annual Brahmotsavams. Reporting from both outlets says TTD officials are stepping up efforts to improve cleanliness during the period when footfall and related civic needs typically rise.

The Hindu adds that an Additional Executive Officer reviews preparedness across the hill shrine. The report highlights the role of volunteer groups in maintaining cleanliness not only within the temple precincts but also beyond them. Times of India similarly frames the move as a pre-Brahmotsavams sanitation push.

Both sources frame the initiative as part of broader operational readiness. The Hindu further says TTD plans to roll out a ‘Nandakam’ application to address sanitation challenges in real time, indicating a shift toward more immediate monitoring and response during the festival period.
