Speaking to the media at Annamaiah Bhavan in Tirumala , the EO said the devotees are now getting accommodation within 5-10 minutes without any inconvenience. The rotation of rooms which used to be rampant earlier due to the middlemen has now curtailed with the introduction of FRT.
Even the refund is also given to the devotee who was allotted the room with their Adhaar card. Once again a devotee will get a room only after a span of a month. With this new system which was introduced on March 1 onwards, till March 12, the revenue garnered by TTD in accommodation was Rs. 2.95 crores.
Same system is being implemented in Advance booking and Current booking systems also, EO maintained.
