The Pilgrims coming for the Mukkoti Ekadasi Darshan tickets are in for a surprise on TTD. 9 counters are giving the tickets, but for a future date. The pilgrims are saying that they cannot afford to stay on the Temple for so many days and they will not get accommodation.
They are getting the darshan tickets for 4th and after 4th. They are supposed to stay on the Hill shrine at least for 3 days which is costly and also impossible. They do not know what tod do. They want darshan for today or the next day. They also want accommodation.
The local people are happy as they can down and come back on the darshan day.
