Global Hindi Heritage Foundation, along with Jana Sena and Vishwa Hindu Parishad members, organized Shanti and Meditation as a Prayaschittam for offering adulterated Laddu to Lord Venkateswara. More than 125 people joined the gathering by 8:00 a.m. on September 28. This Prayaschittam program was organized to highlight the seriousness of the wounded sentiments of Hinds and the inspiration derived from Sri Pawan Kalyan, who was doing Prayaschittam Deeksha.
                Sri Sashi Kejriwal served as Master of Ceremony and spoke about the Naivedyam polluted with animal fat offered by Lord Balaji. Then he invited a Priest from RVVSS Temple to chant Shanti Mantras to purify our mind and body. The audience also participated in chanting a few slokas. Several people talked about the seriousness of the offering of Adulterated Laddu to Lod Balaji and the course of action to redress the polluted ambiance on Tirumala Hills. GHHF President Dr. Prakash Rao Velagapudi, VHPA Dallas President Shri Gaur ji, Chandra Koosam, Rahul Dharankar, Commander Gavi Kumar Director of Veteran Affairs, Sachin Sugandhi from Sewa international, Jana Sena Party Kishore Anichetty, Sri Ram Mathi, also Ramu Gullapalli from TDP, Hemanth Kale from HBS, Ramakrishna GVS and others spoke about the seriousness of the matter and what steps to take to restore the sanctity of Laddu offering
Prakasarao Velagapudi spoke about the use of animal fats and oils in Tirupati laddus as a serious violation of the sentiments of a billion Hindus. Hindus across the globe were amazed at the intensity of the hatred of the YSRCP government. He mentioned that the National Diarry Lab has conducted testing of the Ghee used to make Laddus and revealed the ghee contained animal fat, Beef tallow, Lard, and Fish oil. The second evidence is that they changed the Ghee supplied and bought it at about Rs 318, while pure is almost impossible to buy for less than Rd 800.
                He also mentioned that the Prayaschittam event at Frisco was inspired by Sri Pawan Kalyan, who spoke about how Hindus were being abused, Temples were attacked, Murtys were broken, Chariots were burned, and so on. He embarked on an eleven-day Prayaschittam Deeksha as a way of spiritual atonement. Also, he advocated that all the Hindu temples must be freed from government control and also advocated the formation of the Sanatan Dharma Rakshana Board to manage the Temples.
Prakasa Rao mentioned that he had written a letter to the Deputy Chief Minister on July 1, 2024, asking him to address four issues to restore faith in the new administration. These issues are as serious as the Laddu issue.
1) Free Hindu Temples from government control and hand over to competent Hindus to manage independently.
2)      Stop abusing the Hindu Temples and Deities – investigate the abuses of Hindu Temples and take appropriate action against the culprits and authorities who failed to investigate.
3) Stop diverting Temple Funds to other religions and secular acts. The funds were diverted to the Government treasury and then funded by non-Hindu organizations.
4)      Declare Tirumala, Tirupati, and Tiruchanur as Divya Kshetra, - Holy city. It should be the religious Center on the same lines as the Vatican and Mecca.
5) Christianization of TTD. We have submitted a letter about the extent of Christian influence and a letter to the Executive Officer and Chairman of TTD.
In the letter GHHF wrote to the Deputy Chief Minister, we requested him to seriously consider addressing these and other issues.
Following the speeches, Dr. Sunil Thummala led the people to practice Breathing exercises and meditation.  
We are grateful to all those people who came so early in the morning to express their sincere outrage at the offering of Adulterated Laddu to Lord Venkateswara.
As mentioned, several community leaders spoke about the seriousness of the Laddu issue and requested the government investigate and take appropriate legal action against the culprits. It is also stated that TTD should establish a world-class Testing Lab on Tirumala Hills to test the quality of Ghee and all the materials used to Prepare Laddus and other items prepared on the Hill.
We want to thank all the sponsors who provided coffee, doughnuts, Upma, Bananas, cookies, and other items. We also thank the media: Venkat Mulukutla (TV5), Shiva Vadlamudi (Prime 9), Crossroads, and others.
