Amidst the Tirupati Laddu controversy that has erupted across the country and the world, BJP leader and Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje has demanded a strict and fair investigation from the Andhra Pradesh government. BJP leader Shobha Karandlaje posted on social media and said that the state government should take this matter seriously and form a special team or hand over the entire case to the CBI. She further said that this is a direct attack on Hindu faith and belief, which will not be tolerated.
A thorough investigation is needed
BJP leader and Union Minister Shobha Karandlaj has also demanded a thorough investigation of the suppliers who have been supplying ghee for Tirupati Laddu for the last four years. She said that it should also be clear who will get the tender and from where the ghee has been supplied. Shobha Karandlaj has demanded complete transparency from the Andhra Pradesh government on this issue and said that now there is no secrecy, now it is time for the whole truth to come out. This demand of the BJP leader on this issue related to Hindu faith has intensified the debate politically and religiously.
Union Minister Prahlad Joshi also expressed concern
Union Minister Prahlad Joshi has expressed concern over the Tirupati temple laddu controversy and said that this is a very serious matter and it should be thoroughly investigated. He said, “The lab report that has come out is very dangerous. This is a matter of trust and faith of crores of people. This report issued by Chandrababu Naidu should be investigated and if it is proved true, action will be taken against the culprits.” They should be punished. There should be a strict punishment. They should be given a strict punishment.”
He also appealed against the case and said that the state government should take a decision on the matter. Joshi said, “The state government is competent, they should decide whether the case should be handed over to the CBI or a Special Investigation Team (SIT) should be formed.”
This is the whole matter
There has been an uproar over the presence of fish oil and animal fat in the laddu ghee of the world famous Tirupati Balaji temple of Andhra Pradesh. The Andhra Pradesh government claims that the ghee used to make laddus has been found to be adulterated. This irregularity happened due to the contract given during the previous government. Regarding this, the temple committee Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam said that the blacklisted supplier whose ghee has been adulterated was given the contract during the previous Jagan Mohan government.
The central government has sought a report from the Andhra Pradesh government on these allegations and has assured action after investigation. But after this revelation, anger is being seen among the conservatives in the country. Protests have also taken place in some cities like Bhopal. Petitions are being filed from the Supreme Court to the High Court. On the other hand, political allegations and counter-allegations have also started. BJP leaders have demanded death penalty for the culprits. Congress has questioned CM Naidu as to why the CM did not give an explanation for three months?
