With a wish to bring in a kind of respite to the thronging devout from the scorching heat the management has decided to raise summer pandals at all vulnerable points where the congregation of the pilgrims is likely to be heavy and also put up khus grass mats for the benefit of pilgrims waiting in the queue lines outside the Vaikuntam queue complexes. The supervisory task has been entrusted to the Health Officer
