Revanth Demanded Central Govt For National Status To Medaram Jatara And Grant Funds
Medaram/Hyderabad, Sept 23 (Maxim News): Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said that his government is working for the welfare of the tribals. After visiting the Sammakka-Saralamma temple site in Medaram, Mulugu district, he reviewed the temple development works with the officials.
Later, addressing a public meeting, he said that the development of the temple is an emotional responsibility. He said that his birth along with Minister Seethakka is blessed with these works. The center is giving thousands of crores of rupees to the Kumbh Mela. He questioned why the center has not given funds to the medaram jatara, the Kumbh Mela of the tribals. He demanded that the Central government give national status to this Medaram jatara and grant funds to this extent.
“With the blessings of Sammakka-Saralamma, I started the padayatra from here on February 6, 2023. We set foot on this land to get rid of the ills that befell Telangana. The rulers of that time discriminated against the development of the Sammakka-Saralamma temple. But our government is ready to sanction any number of crores of rupees. We are making tribals, priests, and traditional families partners in this. The people’s government was formed with the blessings of Sammakka and Saralamma. We decided to develop the temple on a permanent basis. I came here to know the opinions of the locals.
The authorities should ensure that the work is completed in 100 days. We have designed the structures to be made of stone structures only. We have designed the structures to withstand natural disasters. Plans should be made to store water in the Jampannavagu.
The work should be completed with dedication in the next hundred days. We will construct stone structures only. We will complete the work by the time of the Maha Jatara”. This is possible only with the participation and cooperation of the locals. We will come again for the maha jatara. let’s make the Jatara great this time, said CM Revanth Reddy.
Earlier, as part of a review meeting held on the development of the Medaram temple, CM Revanth got the views of the priests and representatives of tribal associations. “Sammakka and Saralamma are the inspiration for struggle and manhood.
The Congress government was formed with the blessings of those goddesses. I have been visiting the goddesses since I was elected as an MLA. We have decided to develop the temple on a permanent basis so that it can withstand natural disasters. Our belief is that there should not be even a hint of difference in tradition. We should work to pass on the history and spirit of the tribal struggle to future generations,” the Chief Minister said. (Maxim News)
