Tirupati Temple Scam | Polyester 'Dupattas' Sold As Silk In Rs 54 Crore Scam In Tirupati Temple
Tirupati Temple News: The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), the trust managing the famed Tirumala temple in Andhra Pradesh, has been rocked by the revelation of a massive Rs 54 crore silk 'dupatta' scam, spanning a decade from 2015 to 2025. The scandal came to light following an internal vigilance inquiry that found that a contractor consistently supplied 100% polyester dupattas while billing them as the pure mulberry silk products specified in the tender documents. The internal probe, which was initiated after the TTD board under Chairman BR Naidu raised concerns, revealed the extent of the alleged fraud.
