Mangaluru: Subrahmanya Kukke Temple, located about 100 km from here, has decided to develop infrastructure, so the maximum number of worshipers can do ‘Ashlesha Bali’ Seva at a time.
This SEVA is one of the most sought after Snails in the temple.
At Ashlesha Nakshatra, his request was only for nearly 2,000 Sevas, and the worshipers stood in the queue on the previous night itself, for tickets.
The plan to double the number of Sevas, which can accommodate nearly 500 people to do around 250 ‘Ashlesha Bali’ Seva at a time, in one congregation (Hall), has been resolved.
At present, an average of around 1,000 to 1,300 Sevas is carried out in a day, each with four batches of 250 Sevas each.
After mantapas ready with a separate section for ‘sankalpa’, the temple will be able to do 1,000 sevas in four batches in one hall.
Work is expected to be completed in two years, he said.
Because of the pandemic, all Sevas had been stopped at temporary temples, but people gathered in large quantities for Darshan.
Of the average of 25,000 worshipers visiting the temple, footsteps have decreased to 2,000-3,000 on weekdays, because of restrictions.
Sarpa Samskara Puja’s online booking was full for the next two months, said Mohanram.
Under the third phase of the planned master of the Sri Subrahmanya, Counter Seva, Guest House, shops for ‘Hannu Kai’ and silver offerings, information centers, museums and other infrastructure will be developed on the road car.
Dasoha Bhavan three floors (dining room) with a seating capacity for 3,000 people will be built following traditional architecture.
Auditorium with seating capacity for 1,000 people and other facilities such as parking facilities will be built in injadi near subrahmanya.
The new power plant will be set exclusively for the temple, with the estimated cost of Rs 11 Crore, and the shower point will also be developed, he said.
Minister S Angara has expressed confidence to nod in the cabinet for the RS 300 Crore Master Plan.
“The work will begin after we receive approval.
The Minister Shashikala Jolle is expected to hold a meeting at the temple immediately, following what we will find cabinet approval,” he said.
