Almost all temples in india are exist to collect money from people who are in desprate need to solve their problem. Temple in tirputi collects crores of ruppes. We have not seen anywhere this money has been utilized. Most non-hinu holy places outside india are very well organsed and too much facalites are provided to the visitors and the best thing is they dont ask for single penny from the visitor.

Hello Mr. Siddarth,
Speak if you know or else keep quite. Do you know there is a trust in Tirupathi. TTD. It has various temples all over and has sponsored so many good things for a common man. It has hospitals, schools etc under its trust and are doing lots of things to help those in need. So dont just say, they are not doing anything.
For facilitating easy darshans for public, they have this ticket tagging and finger print system. These tickets can be booked from anywhere, near to your home. There are lot of TTD outlets which can book tickets for you.
