VIP Break Darshan Timings at Tirumala Modified from Today
The VIP break darshan timings at the Tirumala temple have been revised, with the new schedule taking effect from today. Deputy Executive Officer Lokanatham announced that the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) has initiated these changes on an experimental basis and has issued formal orders accordingly. As part of the new arrangement, VIP break darshans will now be conducted from 5:45 AM to 11:00 AM.
However, the existing schedule will continue on Thursdays and Fridays due to the special rituals of Tiruppavada Seva on Thursday and Abhishekam Seva on Friday, Lokanatham stated.
According to the revised plan, the TTD aims to accommodate the maximum possible number of general devotees after completing the VIP darshans early in the day. The updated timings are as follows:
5:45 AM – Protocol Darshan
6:30 AM – Referral Protocol Darshan
6:45 AM – General Break Darshan
10:15 AM – Srivani Darshan (both online and offline)
10:30 AM – Donor Darshan
11:00 AM – TTD Retired Employees' Darshan
On Thursdays and Fridays, the break darshans will begin at 8:00 AM, in accordance with the existing schedule. The TTD has urged devotees to take note of these changes.
