SABARIMALA: The BJP has demanded the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) and the State Government to take immediate steps for the implementation of the Sabarimala Master Plan to ensure basic facilities for the crores of pilgrims.
Talking to mediapersons at the Sabarimala Devaswom Guest House on Tuesday, BJP state general secretary A N Radhakrishnan said that the present practice of initiating ad hoc measures during the beginning of Mandalam season by the TDB should be stopped. Instead, TDB and the Government should take up long-term projects in a phased manner immediately after the Makaravilakku season, he said.
