TTD stopped issuing SSD tokens from this April year after a stampede-like situation.
Meanwhile, the doors of the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam temple were opened after the solar eclipse ended on Tuesday. The doors of the temples were closed on Tuesday in view of the partial solar eclipse.
Prasad was offered after the doors of the temple opened at 7.30 pm. The devotees were later allowed to have darshan from 8.30 pm. TTD Vaikuntham started allowing devotees to enter Q Complex from 8 pm onwards.
The Sutak period started at 4:20 am, so the temples were closed. It is believed that in such a situation the ritualistic programs of worship stop.
