The construction of Tirupati Balaji temple in the scenic Shivalik forests of Majeen is nearing completion, and it is scheduled to welcome devotees from June 8. Spanning across 62 acres of land with an approximate cost of Rs 30 crore, the temple is poised to become one of the prominent religious destinations in the Jammu region, fostering religious and pilgrimage tourism in the Union territory.
The Jammu temple will be the sixth Balaji Temple constructed outside of Andhra Pradesh, with the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) having previously built temples in Hyderabad, Chennai, Kanyakumari, Delhi, and Bhubaneswar.
“We have almost completed the construction of the temple and it will be inaugurated on 8 June and will be thrown open for the devotees free of cost. The rituals will start from June 3,” TTD Chairman Y V Subba Reddy said. Reddy, who inspected the temple in Jammu, said, “Whatever system and practice being followed in Tirumala, will be followed here as well.”
The TTD has built the Tirupati Balaji Temple at a holy place. It falls on the route between Jammu and Katra, where Mata Vaishno Devi temple is located, Reddy said.
