The seer said it would be difficult to provide basic amenities to the visitors. Hence, it would be better if devotees offer pooja to Raghavendra Swamy at their places for some months. He expressed confidence that major repair works in Mantralaya, which was badly damaged in the floods, would be completed in the next two or three months.
The seer was speaking to presspersons during his visit to a devotee’s house in Bangalore on Saturday. He accepted donations for renovation of Mantralaya from the public, on the occasion. The seer said both Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh governments had extended help to rebuild Mantralaya. The contributions accepted from the public would be utilised to restore basic amenities, he said and also appealed to the public to contribute funds generously towards the renovation works.
